Abstract

The Shi'te faith is based on the Qur'an and the sunna of the Prophet Mohammad and his twelve successors, calling for justice, awareness and ijtihad. It has given direction and richness to Iranian culture. Combination of Shi'ite beliefs and Iranian culture gave Iranians a distinct identity, and has led to the flourishing of their culture. Iranian artists and architects have created pieces of art imbued with Shi'ite spirituality. This has been reflected particularly in SHI'ITE MOSQUES, whose design cannot be understood but through appreciating Shi'ite beliefs. Various elements in the structure of a mosque such as its spatial relations, decoration and lighting reflect such beliefs. In this study, the authors compare twelve SHI'ITE MOSQUES with twelve Sunni ones, mainly from the spatial relations point of view, in order to investigate the different impacts of the two Muslim denominations on the design of their worship places.
