MIMBARMIMBAR

A Minbar is a pulpit in the mosque where the Imam (leader of prayer)

stands to deliver sermons (khutbah ). The minbar is usually shaped like

a small tower with a pointed roof and stairs leading up to it. It is often

richly ornamented, though in its simplest form the minbar is just a

small platform with only a few steps. The minbar is located to the right

of the mihrab , the niche that indicates the direction of prayer (i.e.

towards Mecca ).

In some mosques there is a platform (mezzin mahfili ) opposite the

minbar. That is the place of the assistant of the Imam, the muezzin ,

stands during prayer. The muezzin recites the answer to the prayer of

the Imam. This feature is the Islamic equivalent of the Pulpit found in

Christian Churches.

MINARETS

A common feature in mosque is the minaret, the tall, slender tower

that usually is situated at the one of the mosque structure. Minarets

are distinctive architectural features of Islamic mosques . Minarets are

generally tall, graceful spires, with onion-shaped crowns, usually either

free standing or much taller than any surrounding support structure. In

the early mosque history, minaret is not the one of the characteristics

in mosque construction but it becomes the most important elements

for the mosque recently. The main function of the minaret is to provide

a vantage point from which is can call out the azan, calling faithful for

prayer. Minarets have been described as the gate from heaven and

earth .

pews to allowed as many worshippers as possible to line the room.

as Muslims in prayer are supposed to only be focusing on Allah. Instead

mosques will have Arabic calligraphy and verses from the Quran on the

walls to assist worshippers in focusing on the beauty of Islam and its

holiest book, the Quran, as well as for decoration.

is situated at the mosque lawn. In addition, it also situated between

the entrance and the prayer hall. Water for ablutions before prayer is

provided in most large mosques, though these days its function is

sometimes purely decorative. If the pool is decorative in nature, then

another water supply, often in a room near the shoe storage area, is

available for ablutions. The pool may, or may not have a fountain,

though when used for ablutions, it is more likely to have a fountain to

allow a number of worshippers to wash simultaneously under running

water. The pool is usually located at, or near the center of the open

courtyard. If the pool incorporates a fountain, this structure is very

often of a creative and inventive design, surmounted by domed or
