Nur al-Din Mosque in Hama - Syria

 

Nur Al-Din Mosque (Arabic: جامع نور الدين‎, transliteration: Jami Nur al-Din) is a Zengid-era mosque in Hama, Syria, located on the banks of the Orontes river. The mosque was erected by Nur ad-Din Zangi in 1172. The square minaret, made of alternating bands of black basalt and yellow limestone, is the mosque's strongest feature. Inside the mosque, the intricately carved wooden minbar still stands as one of the oldest preserved testaments to Islamic history.;
