<![CDATA[Contemporary architecture in the Arab-Islamic World is facing the challenge of finding a distinctive character that combines both the heritage of the regional building traditions and the modern society lifestyle. Since few apparent attempts aim to articulate an identity for regional architecture, this research investigates the work of the Jordanian architect, Ayman Zuaiter. Their jobs attempt to integrate the cultural values and traditions with the contemporary Arab-Islamic architecture and seek to express and represent the spirit, values, and underlying principles of the regional heritage. This study aims to offer a deeper understanding of design as both method and production, contributing in turn to understanding regional and socio-economic considerations behind forms. This study will be based on the analysis of one of Zuaiter's residential buildings, Al-Tabba'a House. The research method is mainly exploratory, which combines a review of the project primarily in terms of cultural context; responding to the site itself (understanding regional and socio-economic considerations behind forms); concepts and how techniques helped them appear the way they are; multiple personal interviews with the architect aiming to understand his design strategies to revive traditions; and the external influences that affect the design process. This study shows that Islamic Values could be delivered through each design feature in Ayman Zuaiter’s work of contemporary Arab architecture.]]>

<![CDATA[Bayt al-mal is one of the important architectural innovations that characterized the Islamic civilization. It represents the treasury of the Islamic State, which preserves the various financial resources of the State. The Bayt al-mal appeared in the era of the Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him), and its layout was simple reflects the simplicity of Islam. Its location was inside the mosque or adjacent to it. Bayt al-mal developed with the expansion of the Islamic State and the Islamic conquests, and it has a special called Diwan Bayt al-mal. Domes were built in mosques as one of the branches and sections of the Bayt al-mal. These domes were dedicated to preserving the different funds of the endowments and places. The location of these domes was in the great mosques' courtyard. They rise from the courtyard's surface and based on eight columns. These domes appeared especially in Umayyad mosques in Syria and Palestine. Then they spread in most countries in the east and west of the Islamic world. This research deals with the concept of the Bayt al-mal; its names, origin, architectural development, and the reasons to build them. This research also studies the dimension of jurisprudence in the building of these domes. It used an analytical study of the architectural shape of these domes and studies the impact of functional dimension on the form and plan of these domes. This study shows the remaining examples of these domes in Islamic mosques and mentions some examples of the extinct ones.]]>

<![CDATA[Architecturally, the Seljuqs' dominion makes a significant shift from the Pre-Islamic Sassanid squinches into a sophisticated transition mechanism employed to change the walls of a square chamber to an octagonal base to set a dome. It initiated a new construction methodology to hybridize the previous experiences of Sassanid domes with new architectural tendencies since the prior understanding of the transition zone was a makeshift in quality. It is not consistent enough for future architectural adventures in creating larger structures. Although a cursory investigation of transition zones of Seljuq dome chambers in some respects reveals a relatively homogeneous framework, it has never meant the stagnation of architectural creativity in different parts of the Seljuk territory. On the other hand, the typology and local schools of Seljuq transition zones of dome chambers have not been thoroughly considered by geographical centralism in Iran. For a better understanding of the standardization of various techniques considered in Seljuq architecture between the 11th and 12th centuries to span the cubic structure to a circular plan, this project is aimed to clarify three different schools of architectural articulation concerning transition zone in the Seljuq dome chambers. A structural analysis was conducted assuming several scenarios over Seljuq domes to clarify its geographical characteristics as well as static behaviors in different parts of Iran. This study shows that no dome has a regular mechanism of a transition zone, no two regions share the same approach, and three different empirical attitudes towards the transition zone would be enough to consider three architectural schools encompassing Northwest Iran, Alborz, and Central Iran, in which the difference lies in the basic elements of the construction of the transition zone rather than proportions.]]>

<![CDATA[The language of paraphrase (taa’wil, In Arabic: تاویل ) uses divine unseen (gheiybi, غیب) signs to shape the mosque institution. There are mosques and praying rituals for all realms: Literal (Mulki, Ù…ÙÙ„Ú©ÛŒ), Ethereal (Mithaali, مثالی), and Spiritual (Malakuti, ملکوتی). The rituals accomplish in mosque architecture in the hierarchy of being. The authority helps to explain the unseen concepts by paraphrase. The research questions are what factors have led to the manifestation of hidden ideas in the architecture of the Isfahan Jame Mosque objectively? And what are the evidence of unseen confirmations which led to introspection and personal approach? This research aims to answer the questions raised, then used a qualitative research method and describes the case study by using an analytical-introspective survey in combination with grounded theory to elucidate unseen concepts as esoteric meanings of architecture, in place and time. Numerous issues of the invisible architecture of mosque explain how to convert this mosque to desirable ones in the future. The architecture of the Jame Mosque of Isfahan is a live example of unseen architecture. It has a close relationship with esoteric literature of not only its era but also for all periods of history. Issues of the invisible architecture of the mosque explain how to convert this mosque to desirable ones in the future. ]]>

<![CDATA[Islamic architecture, particularly mosques architecture, has mainly been the focus of many architectural exhibitions in Muslim-majority countries. Recently, it has been influenced by novelty architecture and has been evolved into elaborate structures. Quds mosque in Tehran, Iran, is a picturesque architecture feat of a modern outlook that came under a lot of criticism for abandoning the traditional symbols of Islamic architecture. This study observes the Quds mosque from a mathematical standpoint using fractals as the method. Fractals are geometric constructions that exhibit similar or identical characteristics by order of magnitude. Rescaling a prominent architectural pattern is also a noticeable subject that considers Quds mosque from this point of view. This study shows that the Quds mosque used fractal principles; self-similarity and congruency. Those are applied in the roof form by using a triangle form on each side.]]>
