| Summary: | Considering the important position of mosque in the Islamic world, referring to the first mosque built by the Prophet (s) can lead to new interpretations of the mosque and its design. Paying attention to the jurisprudential sources and narratives of the past centuries, along with the traditional attention to historical sources of architecture and landscape, is a way in this regard. The Prophet's reluctance to roof the mosque on the condition of necessity, and his desire to simply architecture the mosque and the borderlessness between the seraglio)shabestan( and the courtyard, as well as preventing the planting of trees in the courtyard of the mosque are some of the points that have been discussed in jurisprudential and historical sources. Raggles has not paid attention to these issues in the schematic design he presents in the book "Islamic Gardens and Landscapes" from Al-Nabi Mosque. |
