Product Description
In this work, Harran Firdevs Grand Mosque is introduced within the context of Harran's scientific, political, cultural, and architectural history.
Harran, the lost Cordoba of the East in the middle of the Islamic world, is the hometown of Prophet Abraham (a.s.), the ancestor of Prophet Muhammad (a.s.). Harran, where over 1000 scholars proficient in religious, natural, and social sciences were raised, boasts many significant structures in terms of Islamic art and architecture. Harran Grand Mosque, the Mosque and Tomb of Hayat-ı Harrani, Harran Castle, city walls, and Aleppo Gate are some of them. Harran Castle, built by Maslama b. Abd al-Malik in 709; has three stories, a rectangular plan, and an enclosed area of approximately 35,000 m².
Harran Grand Mosque, with its area of 11,128 m², is the first monumental largest mosque in Anatolia. On the 100-meter façade of the Grand Mosque; there is a monumental crown gate 8.32 m wide and 7.41 m high, with nine doors on each side. The Grand Mosque has a total of 29 doors, three domed freshwater wells, a domed fountain with a water jet, a 33.35 m minaret, and rich stone carvings. Harran Grand Mosque resembles the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus in many respects.
The aim of this study is to draw attention to Harran Grand Mosque, the legacy of Hz. Omar, the companion Iyad b. Ghanm, Nur ad-Din Mahmud Zangi, and Saladin Ayyubi, and to make a modest contribution to its revitalization.
