description The emergence of architectural elements in the Islamic era was not a coincidence or was the effort of a specific group, but rather the efforts of groups of people who united under one language, religion and geography, and we do not forget that Islamic architecture and Arab-Islamic art influenced and was influenced by previous civilizations such as Byzantium, Sasanian and others, as the Arabs took from the rest of civilizations and developed them And vice versa. The research aims to reveal the functional and aesthetic dimensions of the architectural elements by mentioning the most prominent of these elements and shedding light on their function in relation to the building as well as their aesthetic dimensions. The research also aims to remove doubts about the fact that these elements are not Arab, but rather a mixture of other civilizations, and that this type of studies is a starting point for everything new that aims for development, not only in the field of archeology, but also in the fields of engineering and design. The functions of the architectural elements are multiple, so each element has its location in the building, and it has a specific architectural function, in addition to the decorative function. These elements were reviewed and their location and architectural and decorative functions were clarified
