Built in approx 742 AD, just about 100 yrs after Islam was brought to the humanity by Prophet Muhammad in Arabia. Chinese Government has identified this as a national treasure and hence this Mosque is under State protection. The Mosque is absolutely fascinating in its physical size, architecture and features. Huge complex with 7 arch entrances eventually leading to the actual prayer hall. Inside the prayer hall there are many unique features and architectural marvels. One of them being the wooden panels, approx 20' x 10' tall engraved with one juz of Quran on each panel. There are 30 such hand-engraved complete Quran panels throughout the Masjid. This type of art is probably unique in all of the Muslim world calligraphy artifacts. On both sides along the entrance all the way to the musalla are small rooms serving variety of purposes, such as guest room, officers' room, wudu, etc. as in all mosques in china, non-Muslims are not allowed to enter the actual musalla. |
