10 Oldest Mosques in the World

1. Quba Mosque, Saudi Arabia
First Built: 622


Quba Mosque, Saudi Arabia

The designation of the oldest mosque in the world requires careful use of definitions, and must be divided into two parts, the oldest in the sense of oldest surviving building, and the oldest in the sense of oldest mosque congregation. Even here, there is the distinction between old mosque buildings that have been in continuous use as mosques, and those that have been converted to other purposes; and between buildings that have been in continuous use as mosques and those that were shuttered for many decades. In terms of congregations, they are distinguished between early established congregations that have been in continuous existence, and early congregations that ceased to exist (wikipedia).

When I originally commented I appear to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox
and now whenever a comment is added I get 4 emails with the exact same comment.
Perhaps there is a way you can remove me from that service?

Many thanks!

Wonderful blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you suggest starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option?

There are so many choices out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Cheers!

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your
articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything.
Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great graphics or videos
to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this website could definitely be one of the most beneficial
in its field. Fantastic blog!
