Muslims acquired architectural styles from Byzantine, Copt, Rome and Sassan. Types of Islamic architecture are mosques, mausoleums, palaces and fortresses. The Islamic architectural style was developed shortly after the Prophet Muhammad era. An example can be seen when completing the rock dome in Jerusalem. It has indoor arched space, round dome usage and decorative pattern. Architectural art is very popular. The architecture of Islamic art prohibits the use of symbolic arts such as statues, paintings, and representations of other living things.
The most prominent of these buildings is the Mughal era. Indian Islamic architecture developed in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. This style combines the style of India, Persia, Turkey. This style, especially the mosque, is still very popular today. Local buildings are still vulnerable to overseas modern influences, but Mughal architecture is still influential
The long history of Islam has brought many local architectural styles including Abbasid Morning, Persia, Moore, Timur, Ottoman, Fatima, Mamluk, Mughal, Islamic in India, and Islam. And Islamic architecture in Africa. Notable types of Islamic architecture include early Abbasid architecture, T mosque, Anatolian central dome and so on. Muslims do not encourage idolatry; therefore, architecture is often decorated with the Arabic calligraphy of the Quran, rather than using it to depict scenes.
Islamic architecture includes various secular and religious styles. The main example of Islamic architecture is a mosque. Immediately after the Mohammed era, a distinguishable Islamic architectural style emerged, incorporating the Roman architectural tradition and adding local adaptation to the former Sassan and Byzantine models. Kailuan Grand Mosque (located in Tunisia) is one of the most preserved and most important examples among the initial Great Mosque. Built in 670, it has all the architectural features to distinguish the early mosques: minaret, wide courtyard surrounded by pouches, and prayer hole in the pillar.
Perhaps the most important form of expression of Islamic architecture is a mosque. Various cultures will affect the construction of the mosque. For example, Israeli architecture in North Africa and Spain such as Kairouan Grand Mosque has marble and porphyry pillars of Roman and Byzantine architecture, but the Indonesian mosque usually has a local Javanese style multi-storied floor. Although it has not been condemned in the Quran, in many Islamic cultures, people do not recognize the image of animals and animals, they are related to all the laws of Abraham against idolatry. "Ibn Masood", Muhammad said, "People who come to the day of resurrection, the most severe punishment of Allaah will be image makers" (al-Bukhaari's report, al-Fath, 10/382 reference)
