Six Marble Tiles at Two Holy Mosques Exhibition Date Back to 13th Century AH
The Exhibition of the Two Holy Mosques Architecture in Makkah houses a remarkable collection of rare historical artifacts that document the architectural and artistic heritage of the Grand Mosque.
Among its most notable exhibits are six historic marble tiles that once adorned the halls of the Grand Mosque, reflecting the craftsmanship and aesthetic traditions of their era.
These marble tiles, dating back to 1881 CE (1299 AH), are distinguished by the elegance of Arabic calligraphy with exceptional craftsmanship. The inscriptions feature the names of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and four of the Prophet's companions.
These marble tiles serve as tangible witnesses to the successive stages of development the Grand Mosque has undergone throughout the centuries. Once adorning the corridors of the Holy Mosque in Makkah, they have since been carefully preserved as part of the collection of the Exhibition of the Two Holy Mosques Architecture.
