On the Western shores of the Larnaca salt lake, the Tekke is the third holiest place place for Muslims in the world.
The shrine was built during the Ottoman administration of Cyprus in the 18th century around the Tomb of Umm Haramn, wet nurse to the the Islamic prophet Muhammad. The very old lady fell from her mule and died during a siege of Larnaca during the first Arab raids on Cyprus around 647 and 649.
The shot was taken minutes after sunrise when the lake waters were very still. The flamingos were busy having their shrimp breakfast on the other side of the lake and much as I waited, not even one came to see what I was up to. Perhaps next time they may be more friendly.

Modern Nur-Sultan is really a planned city, much like other planned capitals. After it became the capital of Kazakhstan in 1997, the city changed its shape enormously. The Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa designed the master plan of the new capital. In March 2019 the name of the city was changed to Nur Sultan in honour of the first president of the new republic, of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev. Here the well known landmark, the Bayterek tower is in the image as well. The tower was designed by architect Norman Foster and is considered a symbol of post-independence Kazakhstan.

During colonial times Singapore was segregated into ethnic districts by the town planners of that era. The Arab Street area was designated as a residential district for Singapore’s diverse Muslim population, primarily constituting people of Middle Eastern, Indian, Malay, Bugis, and Javanese descent.
However, the entrepreneurial tendencies of the residents soon turned it into a thriving trading center that attracted residents from Singapore’s other ethnicities, and became the main shopping area doing business in textiles, spices, furniture, handicrafts, etc. from the rows of shop houses that have been preserved and still line the streets today in this historical district.
Although Arab Street has retained its Middle Eastern character until today with Sultan Mosque, the largest mosque in Singapore, dominating the architectural landscape, it has nevertheless become a melting pot of Singapore’s ethnicities with shops selling everything from oriental rugs to Chinese furniture, ethnic jewelry, clothes, perfumes, etc. In addition to retail outlets, the area is abundantly populated with bars, cafés, eateries, and restaurants serving Indian, Malay, Middle Eastern, and Western dishes.
Die Masjid Sultan befindet sich zwischen der Muscat Street und North Bridge Road im Kampong-Glam-Distrikt in Singapur. Die 1928 eröffnete Moschee gilt als eine der wichtigsten Moscheen Singapurs. Die ursprüngliche Moschee geht auf den Herrscher von Johor, Sultan Hussain Shah, zurück.

يارب ابعثة مبتسماً كما كان :"(
احسن الله عزائكم .
* رجعت رفعت الصوره
عليك بسم الله و دارك رحمة الله سيدي
آقول بسم الله على لا جاك شي يـ المملكة
ما طاحت يدي(ن) بها العارض ولا طاحت يدي
تطلب إله كل ما في الكون يسبح في فلكه
و آنه يحفظك يـ الذي في العين شفناه الجدي
و بالقلب حتى ما حداهم والدينه نشرقه
حمدلله ع سلامتك ماتشوف شر يارب

Iconic in Kuala Lumpur is this view of the confluence of the Klang and Gombak Rivers. At the junction is the famous Sultan Abdul Samad Jamek Mosque built in 1909. Its architect was British Arthur Benison Hubback (1871-1948), who was much taken by Indo-Saracenic aesthetics, albeit in his own interpretations.
This entire area was until a few years ago quite a mess but it has now been very nicely revamped with the name River of Life.
