Cathedral of Abraha, Yemen

This walled enclosure in San’a, Yemen is where Abraha al-Ashra built an imposing cathedral. Abraha was a Christian ruler of Yemen who wanted to divert Arab pilgrimage from the Ka’bah to his cathedral. He set out with an army (which included elephants) to destroy the Ka’bah but was struck down on the outskirts of Makkah by a hail of stones carried by birds. The story is mentioned in Surah Feel in the Quran.

Tomb of Prophet Hud(upon him be peace)

This tomb, in Hadhramaut, Yemen belongs to Hud (upon him be peace) who was sent as a Prophet to the people of ‘Aad. The people of ‘Aad were known uniquely for their mighty strength and size. The majority however, rejected the invitation of Hud (upon him be peace) and were destroyed by a powerful wind. The eleventh Surah of the Holy Quran is named after Hud (upon him be peace).

Note that this entry has been shown for information purposes only. On no account should anybody pray towards a grave or seek supplication through them as this is tantamount to committing shirk, associating partners with Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He)

Mosque of Cordoba

The Mosque of Cordoba, in Andalucia, Spain was originally the site of a church which was bought by the Muslim Emir Abd ar-Rehman I and subsequently converted into one of the largest mosques in the world with work starting in 784 CE. Cordoba became one of the most advanced cities in the world, as well as a great cultural, political and economic centre and the mosque featured as a great centre of learning.

• The building is most notable for its giant arches, with over 1,000 columns of jasper, onyx, marble, and granite; the double arches, which were a new architectural feature and the rich and exquisite design patterns making it one of the most beautiful mosques to have existed.

• In 1236 CE, Cordoba was recaptured from the Muslims by King Ferdinand III and the mosque was reconsecrated as a Christian church, with the most significant alteration being the construction of a Renaissance cathedral nave in the middle of the structure (see above).
