Mosques are common places of worship among Muslims all around the world. Regardless of whether they are Shi’a or Sunni, they all pray there. This is a building which, in people’s minds, is usually blue as a symbol of peace, and built with a specific architectural style. As reported by a cultural heritage journalist from ISNA, this type of place of worship all around the world is built using different patterns or colours. In terms of beauty, greatness and antiquity, they are given titles like Jame mosques or Azam mosques, as they are called in Iran. Some of the characteristics of this beautiful style of architecture include mirrorwork, dome-like roofs, vaults and nested bedchambers. This beauty has led to mosques all over the world being turned into tourist attractions for both Muslims and followers of other religions. The use of colours in mosques, however, goes beyond the simple function of similar structures around the world. Take the colour pink as an example. Pink is a colour used in some mosques as a symbol of serenity, love and peace. Malaysia’s Pink MosqueOne example of these mosques is Putra Mosque in Malaysia.
