Sheikh Zayed Mosque pictures
June 18, 2008 By
Got these images via email, subhanallah! . This mosque is truly beautiful. I think the photographer overdid it with the fisheye lens but at the same time it could have been the only lens wide enough to cover such a huge masjid! From Wiki, Sheikh Zayed Mosque is the third largest mosque in the world [1], located in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates.

Future Madinah Development Photographs
April 16, 2008 By
I found these pictures on the Ummah.com forums, finally the Saudi government has decided to commercialise (ala Dubai Develop) the holy city of Madina Munawwarah. As always, theres pro's and cons. Personally I think the cons outweigh the pro's. For starters it'll commercialise Madinah to a completely new level, pilgrims will often be tempted to 'shop till they drop' instead of spend their days praying & giving salaam to our Rasul & his companions. Those that have been to Madinah … [Read more...]
