這可能是台中唯一的伊斯蘭信仰中心。
台灣大約有七座清真寺。
畢竟，這是一種有廣大信徒的宗教。

La Grande Mosquée d’Asilah, (fin XVII) voulue par Moulay Ismail après la reconquête de la ville, fut édifiée sur le site d’une église portugaise. Le mur d'enceinte du complexe est couronné de merlons triangulaires. Le minaret à plan octogonal est semblable à celui des mosquées érigées par Ahmed Al Rifi à Tanger, Tétouan et Chefchaouen. La décoration du minaret est assez simple et masquée par plusieurs couches de chaux. Elle est constituée d’une série d’arcatures aveugles polylobées semi-circulaires et brisées à claveaux alternés. Le couronnement est à merlons triangulaires et la lanterne est de dimension réduite.
The mosque is actually called Hadji Hassan Mosque (after the Turkish governor Gazi Hassan Pasha). However, it is also known as the Loggia Mosque because of its beautiful columned loggia.
The mosque was built between 1765 and 1786. During the earthquake on the night of 21.07.2017 the well was badly damaged, its dome crashed to the ground. The minaret and some windows were also damaged, the corridor around the building was closed.
The mosque is no longer used as such today. Unfortunately, they can not be visited because of dilapidation.

“Allah says in the Qur'an not to despise one another. So the criterion in Islam is not color or social status. It's who is most righteous. If I go to a mosque - and I'm a basketball player with money and prestige - if I go to a mosque and see an imam, I feel inferior. He's better than me. It's about knowledge.”

Marrakesh, Morocco
The mosque was founded in 1147 by the Almohad caliph Abd al-Mu'min right after he conquered Marrakesh from the Almoravids. A second version of the mosque was entirely rebuilt by Abd al-Mu'min around 1158, with Ya'qub al-Mansur possibly finalizing construction of the minaret around 1195. This second mosque is the structure that stands today. It is considered a classic and important example of Almohad architecture and of Moroccan mosque architecture generally. The minaret tower, 77 metres (253 ft) in height, is decorated with varying geometric arch motifs and topped by a spire and metal orbs. It likely inspired other buildings such as the Giralda of Seville and the Hassan Tower of Rabat, which were built shortly after in the same era. The minaret is also considered an important landmark and symbol of Marrakesh.
