Grand Musjid, Cordoba, Spain
Andalucia
Alhumdulillah we have just returned from a visit to Spain. As part of our itinerary, we visited the cities of Cordoba, Granada and Seville in the Andalucia region of Spain. This area of Spain was ruled by Muslims from the 700s to 1400s and is full of Islamic history. It is fascinating to visit these areas where the Muslims have left indelible marks attesting to their prosperity and power.
The accompanying picture is that of the Mehrab of the Musjid in Cordoba. After the fall of the muslims, the musjid was converted into a cathedral but the Mehrab remains as well magnificent open areas lined with double-arched pillars lit by naturall light. It was in its time, the largest musjid in the west and could hold 40 000 worshippers at one time. It is an amazing place to visit as its grandeur and beauty is amazing to behold.
More pictures later insha allah.
