Your voice is loud, Bilal, go up the hill and give the call to prayer. Hz.Hamza
The first prayer to be read by Bilali Habeş-i with this request of Hamza was one of the starting points of a belief, culture, tradition and architecture that would spread all over the world. From the first prayer to read over a muddy, modest and unobtrusive mudbrick wall, the approaches to the holy place of worship in which the prayer was read are always differentiated, complicated and embellished with the conditions of their time, but the simplicity of worship has never changed.
In this approach, the belief in a simple and unobtrusive design that integrates with the building blocks at the same time while defining a special area of its own, which is in a quiet relationship with its environment, constitutes one of the idea of the project. The area of worship is considered to be a continuous part even in the minimum plot dimensions, and according to different land types, the second variable part is formed by a square formed by moving from the historical Sinan complexes and inviting the inside of the mosque.
