Both reflection and symmetry are essential elements of the Islamic architecture.
To take pictures here would be a kind of therapy because water as smooth as a mirror has a beneficial effect on peace of mind. I feel as if I can see even my subconsciousness at this location.

Have a nice weekend everyone!
Beautiful building! The limestone façade and typical Baroque ornamentation are not typical for any Islamic center.
كلّنا يبحث عن السعادة ....
لا تحزن : لأن الحزن يزعجك من الماضي , ويخوّفك من المستقبل , ويذهب عليك يومك .
لا تحزن : لأن الحزن ينقبض له القلب , ويعبس له الوجه , وتنظفئ منه الروح , ويتلاشى معه الأمل .
لا تحزن : لأن الحزن يسرّ العدو , ويغيظ الصديق , ويشمّت بك الحاسد , ويغيّر عليك الحقائق .
لاتحزن : لأن الحزن لا يردّ مفقوداً ولا يعيد ذاهباً ولا يبعث ميّتاً ولا يردّ قدراً ولا يجلب نفعاً .
لاتحزن : فإن الله يدافع عنك , والملائكة تستغفر لك , والمؤمنون يشركونك في دعائهم في كل صلاة , والنبي يشفع , والقرآن يعدك وعداً حسناً وفوق كل هذا رحمة أرحم الراحمين
لاتحزن فالحسنة بعشر أمثالها إلى سبعمائة ضعف إلى أضعاف كثيرة , والسيئة بمثلها إلا أن يعفو ربّك ويتجاوز , فالله من كرمٍ ما سمع مثله , ومن جودٍ لا يقاربه جود !
لا تحزن : فأنت على خير في ضرائك وسرّائك , وغناك وفقرك , وشدّتك ورخائك , "عجباً لأمر المؤمن أمره كلّه خير , إن أصابته سرّاء فشكر كان خيراً له , وإن أصابته ضرّاء فصبر كان خيراً له ".

جمعة مليئة بالسعادة لكم جميعاً

Some guy was really pushy trying to be our guide and pretending that he was just interested in practice his english. Then he found some other friend of his and tried the same... but we manage to lose him when we just followed our instinc and walked a little more to find the door we where looking for... even if he said that there is no access for non muslims... nice experience.
this image taken 30 years ago.
He still is at the HAJI ALI.
a man with half a body
who buys me CHAI whenever i see him.
a deeply spiritual man
and a nice guy
Photography’s new conscience
His plight ?
Sunni Shia Alawites. the list goes on
because of baseless questionable historical beliefs
of questionable events that might or might not occured over a thousand years ago.
Factions segregate, fulminate hatred towards each other and bombs kill those who are named HERETICS simply because they dont share similar beliefs.
When one's beliefs kill other men then MAN has reached his lowest form of humanity and can no longer IMHO justify lethal attacks in the name of RELIGION.
This man made schism of beliefs is no longer peaceful tolerance
it is hatred and leads to chaos that we now see in the middle east, south Asia,
and i predict one day in the USA.

Muhammad Ali Pasha(4 March 1769 – 2 August 1849) was born in the Sanjak of Kavala (modern-day Kavala)was the Ottoman Albanian[3] governor and de facto ruler of Egypt from 1805 to 1848, considered the founder of modern Egypt. At the height of his rule, he controlled Egypt, Sudan, Hejaz, Najd, the Levant, Cyprus and parts of Greece.
He was a military commander in an Albanian Ottoman force sent to recover Egypt from a French occupation under Napoleon. Following Napoleon's withdrawal, Muhammad Ali rose to power through a series of political maneuvers, and in 1805 he was named Wāli (governor) of Egypt and gained the rank of Pasha.His attempt at suppressing the Greek rebellion failed decisively, however, following an intervention by the European powers at Navarino.
Ngow salah saboh aksi hukuman bagi yang ka insaf dan ingin taubat nibak Allah SWT nyaow adalah hukum sebat bagi ureng yang berzina yang belum kahwin. jadi bagi adek-adek yang inong bek keu le getanyoe ta dekati zina nyan kaena brok that nibak pandangn Allah dan Masyarakat.
C'est le plus haut minaret de Khiva (44,50), construit en 1910 par le vizir Islam Khodja. Le minaret avait un triple rôle : religieux (pour l'appel à la prière), militaire (tour de guet) et de repère pour les caravanes arrivant du désert.
De nos jours, il peut s'avérer très utile pour éviter de se perdre dans le dédale des rues et ruelles de la Khiva. Ichan Kala - la cité entre les remparts - c'est , outre les palais et les mausolées, un ensemble de plus d'une trentaine de mosquées et medersas, toutes construites sur le même modèle : seuls la taille et les variantes du décor des façades et des minarets les différencient.
The Mezquita is a mix of Islamic and Catholic cathedral architecture. The building was originally a large mosque. Here you can get a sense of its size. The arches go on for many rows. In 1492, Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand declared Spain to be a Catholic country and expelled all non-Catholics who didn't convert. The mosque was preserved, but a cathedral was built around it, as can be seen from other photos in this album. Depending on where you are in the Mezquita, it can feel Islamic or Catholic. I've never seen anything like this anywhere.
I thought that this Arabian Market display was so beautiful

Islamic Civilization Religion Basics A quick introduction to the reason for this essay. With our ongoing travels to the Middle Eastern regions and our wanting to learn from people within different countries, a basic understanding of their religion and history is important. If time allows we will try to address the other major religions within […]

Look-up shot at MIA, Museum of Islamic Art, Doha
The ceiling and the interior design of MIA itself is an artwork.
The light falling from the centre of the dome looks like a sun, surrounded by other stars and galaxies. The curved decoration at the bottom of the photo reminds me of the movement of the night sky.
I made light and shadow a bit clearer so that the exterior design looks more three-dimensional and deleted some noises such as the iron bars from the image with the help of Photoshop.
When I took this picture in 2014, I preferred to post the photos as they were shot at the sites. Lately, I can't resist adding the minimum adjustment with the effective use of Photoshop.
Thank you very much for taking your precious time to view my photography!
