Sherefuddin’s White Mosque in Visoko (at the time an integral part of Yugoslavia) presented a modern projection of a long-standing Muslim community’s presence in a socialist country. The design of the new mosque was initially regarded as representing a rupture with tradition, though its members eventually came to accept the building with pride as an important landmark in the town.

The Qubbah Mosque rests on the site where the Prophet Muhammad built the first mosque after his hijra from Medina. During the 1980’s, the Egyptian architect Abdel Wahed El-Wakil designed over a dozen mosques in Saudi Arabia. While these mosques differ in size and composition, they draw heavily on various historical prototypes belonging to the architectural heritage of the Islamic world and can be referred to as “revivalist.”

Construction of the Great Mosque of Cordoba began between 784 and 786 during the reign of ‘Abd al-Rahman I on a Visigoth site, which was probably the site of an earlier Roman temple. After conquering Cordoba in 1236, Ferdinand III consecrated the Great Mosque as the city’s cathedral. In the early 16th century, a decision, endorsed by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, inserted an entire Gothic “chapel” into the very heart of the former Great Mosque.

The Central Mosque in Porto Novo, Benin was begun in 1912 by African repatriates from South America. It towers over the relatively low horizontal urban fabric of the city much like the cathedrals of medieval Europe. The mosque represents the cross-fertilisation of Bahian and African traditions and falls within a tradition of Afro-Brazilian mosque architectures.
