About Islamic Temples in South Africa
Mosques (masjids) are the gathering places of the global Muslim community for daily salat, Friday jumu'ah prayers, and the major festivals of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. From the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca and the Prophet's Mosque in Medina — the holiest sites in Islam — to landmarks like the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, the Great Mosque of Cordoba, and the Faisal Mosque in Islamabad, mosques worldwide express varied regional styles: Ottoman domes, Persian iwans, Indian Mughal arches, Maghrebi minarets, and Southeast Asian pagoda-roofed prayer halls. Indonesia, Pakistan, India, Iran, and Turkey host the largest concentrations.
