Mosque in Egypt
As Muslims begin to expand their territory they build mosques outside of the Arabian Peninsula.
So the Arab Muslims controlled Egypt in 640 AD and Cairo became the capital of Egypt filled with mosque buildings of Muslims. Then Egypt got the title of "a thousand towers".
Mosques in Egypt function not only as a place of worship, but as educational institutions and hospitals.
Activities of the Mosque
Mosque building has many high artistic values and has a unique architectural style to make people who looked at the dazzled and inspired mosque.
The atmosphere of the mosque since the rising of the sun from the east is very quiet and then after the sun is above the head, then the mosque continues to arrive pilgrims who want to perform the prayers. That's the atmosphere of mosques in all parts of the world that has become the routine life of Muslims throughout the world.
