The Pursuit of Excellence Manifested In Islamic Architecture [EPUB ebook] 
The Islamic Architecture of Masjid Al-Haram and Masjid An-Nabawi

Islamic architecture refers to a style of architecture that was created as a physical manifestation of the principles of Islam in the 7th century, a tradition that continues to the present day. The building that is most frequently associated with Islamic architecture is the mosque, or Muslim place of worship. This book is about the Islamic architecture with special emphasis on the beautiful architecture of Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and Masjid An-Nabawi in Madinah. Inspite the impressive good job of rulers throughout history to expand and care for the Grand Mosque, the incredible achievements of the Saudi kings took the custodianship of the holiest site in the Islamic world to a new level.
King Faisal also undertook the expansion and development work. The building surrounding the Maqam Ibrahim was removed to provide more space for worshippers while circumambulating the Kaaba.
