Naqsh-e Jahan (Imam) Square, Isfahan, Iran.
Hemmed on four sides by architectural gems and embracing the formal fountains and gardens at its centre, this wondrous space is a spectacle in its own right. It was laid out in 1602 under the reign of the Safavid ruler, Shah Abbas the Great, to signal the importance of Esfahan as a capital of a powerful empire. Cross the square on a clear winter's day and it's a hard heart that isn't entranced by its beauty. At 512m long and 163m wide, Naqsh-e Jahan is one of the largest squares in the world, earning a listing as a Unesco World Heritage site. The name means ‘pattern of the world’ and it was designed to showcase the finest jewels of the Safavid empire – the incomparable Masjed-e Shah, the elegant Masjed-e Sheikh Lotfollah and the lavishly decorated Kakh-e Ali Qapu and Qeysarieh Portal.
The Shah Mosque(Jameh Abbasi Mosque) known as Imam mosque(after the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran) is a mosque in Isfahan, Iran, standing in south side of Naghsh-i Jahan Square. Built during the Safavi period, ordered by Shah Abbas the first.
The new Central Mosque of Imam Sarakhsi was built by Turkey’s religious authority and opened on 2nd September 2018 in the Kyrgyz capital Bishkek with Turkey and Kyrgyzstan’s presidents in attendance.
We came across Cambridge Central Mosque today. It's a stunning building that has to be seen to be appreciated. On asking if we could look around we were warmly welcomed, I even got an impromtu guided tour.
We chatted to this gentleman for a while then he kindly agreed to me taking his photo
Jahanara Imam (Bangla: জাহানারা ইমাম) (3 May 1929 – 26 June 1994) was a Bangladeshi Bengali writer and political activist. She is most widely remembered for her efforts to bring those accused of committing war crimes in the Bangladesh Liberation War to trial. She was known as "Shaheed Janani" (Mother of Martyrs). Jahanara Imam was the mother of a slain freedom fighter Rumi. Rumi was my classmate Jami's elder brother. Jahanara Khala was a family friend and a close friend of my mother Dr. Quazi Anwara Monsur. They had gone on a study tour of the United States together. I remember their house in Elephant Road. I wrote her obituary in the Guardian when she passed away. Her wartime diary "Ekatturer Dinguli" (The days of Seventy One) is one of the most moving accounts of the war I have ever read. www.shahidulnews.com/midwife-to-a-bloody-birth Photo: Shahidul Alam/Drik/Majority World.

The Imam Ali Mosque stands beside the grimy Ashar River in the center of Basra, Iraq. Once known as the "Venice of the East", Basra is still reeling from the many wars fought here over the past few decades.
