Yesterday morning, as part of the MWL’s event, held with the support of the United Nations and the Mayor of Córdoba, and with the participation of UNESCO:

H.E. Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa @MhmdAlissa, Secretary-General of the MWL and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars, visited the historic Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba, where he toured its grounds and facilities and explored its most prominent architectural features, particularly its mihrab (prayer niche) and its columns, with their distinctive arches and archways reflecting the unique character of Islamic architecture.

It is worth noting that the mosque was founded by the Umayyad Emir Abd al-Rahman I, known as the “Falcon of Quraysh.”
