According to the Islamic Tawhid, constructed buildings are meantnotonly to meetsome ofthe necessary requirements in relation to man’s existence on earth, but also to facilitate, foster and stimulate his ibadah practices entrusted to him by Allah, thus helping him to elevate his status to a dignity above other creation and honorably live up to his reputation as the steward ofcreation. Hadith + Architecture Hadith is a collection oftraditions containing sayings ofthe prophetMuhammad that, with accounts of his daily practice (the Sunnah), constitute the major source ofguidance for Muslims apart from the Quran. His sayings, actions and expressions are a fountain of guidance for the believers. The Hadith is the second pillar after the Quran upon which every Muslim rests his faith. As mostMuslims are aware, the life example of the ProphetMuhammad is the basis for the beliefs and laws of Islam.

  Architecture is notonly to be looked at, itis also, and that is more important, to be experienced,feltand emotionally attached to. ProphetMuhammad (SAW) viewed architecture neither as a sheer religious ceremony nor a completely and solely secular business. In fact, it is a combination ofboth, in that Islam is a complete way oflife and there is no human activity in Islam that is ever devoid ofa spiritual connotation, as well as in that there is no religious ritual that is directly linked to any architectural activity. Hadith contains many references to the use and functions ofthe mosque during Prophet’s time.
