Abstract

This study investigates Islamic architecture as an integrated civilizational product shaped by a complex interplay of religious, social, political, economic, and environmental factors. The significance of the research lies in highlighting the distinctiveness of Islamic architecture, which is not merely a stylistic or aesthetic accumulation, but a powerful reflection of the Muslim Ummah's identity and interaction with its context. The study aims to analyze how these factors have contributed to the formation of a unique architectural language and to assess the extent of influence from prior civilizations such as the Roman and Byzantine, without compromising Islamic values. The central research question explores whether Islamic architecture can authentically represent the Muslim identity and whether it can serve as a foundation for contemporary architectural practices. Using an analytical and critical methodology, the study examines architectural models in their respective contexts. The findings show that Islamic architecture embodies a balanced civilizational awareness, combining functionality and beauty, and offering environmentally conscious and value-driven alternatives for modern architectural development.

Abstract

This study examines the evolution of mosque architecture within Islamic civilization by analyzing its structural components, functional roles, and symbolic significance. It highlights the mosque not only as a sacred space for worship but also as a central institution in the social and urban fabric of Islamic society. Despite undergoing architectural transformations across centuries, the mosque has retained its spiritual essence and distinctive identity. Through a descriptive and comparative approach, the study investigates defining architectural elements, including domes, minarets, miḥrābs, minbars, and ornamental motifs using selected examples from the Islamic East, the Maghrib, and al-Andalus. Central to the inquiry is how mosque architecture has maintained its foundation in Islamic religious principles while engaging with diverse cultural and artistic traditions. The findings suggest that mosque architecture embodies a dynamic and adaptive tradition: deeply rooted in Islamic values yet responsive to historical change and regional context. This reflects the broader character of Islamic civilization, open to external influences without relinquishing its unique identity.
