Typology
The common design elements of Islamic Architecture
• Large Domes.
• Large courtyard often merged with a central praying hall
• Mihrab or prayer niche on an inside wall indicating the direction to Mecca.
• A four-iwan plan, with three subordinate halls and one principal one that faces toward Mecca
• Minarets or towers (these were originally used as torch-lit watchtowers, as seen in the Great Mosque of Damascus;
• Pishtaq is the formal gateway to the iwan, usually the main prayer hall of a mosque, a vaulted hall or space, walled on three sides,
with one end entirely open; a Persian term for a portal projecting from the facade of a building, usually decorated with calligraphy
bands, glazed tilework, and geometric designs.
• The use of Islamic geometric patterns and foliage based arabesques.
• The use of muqarnas, a unique Arabic/Islamic space-enclosing system, for the decoration of domes, minarets and portals, as
used at the Alhambra.
• The use of decorative Islamic calligraphy instead of pictures which were haram (forbidden) in mosque architecture.
• Central fountains used for ablutions (once used as a wudu area for Muslims), Use of symmetry.
• The use of bright color, if the style is Persian or Indian (Mughal); paler sandstone and grey stones are preferred among Arab
buildings. Compare the Registan complex of Uzbekistan to the Al-Azhar University of Cairo.
• Focus on interior of space rather than exterior.

Water in Islamic Architecture. In Islam, water is seen as life-giving, sustaining, and purifying. ...
One very particular type of Islamic garden related specifically to this concept is the so-called
“Paradise Garden.” The word “paradise” comes from the Persian words pairi, meaning “around,” and
daeza, meaning, “wall.”
