Bolo Hauz Mosque , Bukhara

Rabu, 30 Juni 2010
Sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1436

The name Bala Hauz Mosque translates as “The Mosque of the Bala Lake”, which refers to the octagonal pool (hauz) in its public forecourt that is lined with stone steps. It was built in 1712 for Bibi Khanum, the mother of Ashtarkhanid (or Janid) ruler Abu’l Fayud Khan (1711-47). Although built as a royal chapel, the mosque has become a significant civic monument as a consequence of its eminent site near the famed Registan Square.


The Bala Hauz Masjid was part of an elite neighborhood to the west of the Ark until the early nineteenth century, surrounded by two mosques, the residence of the imperial army commander, an arsenal, a weapon’s workshop, theological colleges (madrasa) and a Sufi hospice (khanqah). A richly decorated entry iwan was added to the mosque’s eastern façade during a general reconstruction of the area in 1914-17 by the last Mangit ruler Sayyid Alim Khan (1910-20). In 1917, famed local master craftsman, Shirin Muradov built a small minaret in front of the mosque.

The mosque consists of an east-facing porch that leads into a square domed chamber flanked by ancillary alcoves to the north, south and west. Clerestory windows along the drum of the high dome light the central chamber, which is also entered from the two sides. Two rooms are placed on either side of the alcove (mihrab) built into this qibla wall. More rooms are built behind six alcoves on two floors along the eastern wall, on either side of the entry vestibule.

The east porch, with a wooden coffered ceiling supported by slender wooden columns and masonry sidewalls, hides the large domed chamber behind it. Its twenty columns are crafted from walnut, poplar and elm wood, and arranged in two rows, creating two bays of roofed-prayer space, protected from the street’s bustle by latticed wooden screens (pinjara). Staircases lead one up to the roof at either end of the portico. The rooms along the eastern wall open out to this porch with windows framed by twelve iwans on two stories; a pattern continued on the sidewalls of the portico with shallow niches.

The Bala Hauz Masjid is noted for the profuse colors and carvings on the wooden columns of its porch and its ceiling. The joinery of its painted ceiling features extraordinary craftsmanship with the use of suspended weights, semi-circular arches and balusters.

The important mosque lies in disrepair today, despite considerable tourist interest. The porch is threatened by water damage while its front minaret tilts precariously despite repair attempts. The pool is not dredged or cleaned, and the public toilet adjacent to the mosque adds to its squalor.

Asal Usul Penyaliban Yesus yang Ditentang Islam

Asal Usul Penyaliban Yesus yang Ditentang Islam (1)
salib yang kini menjadi lambang umat kristen sebagai simbol penyaliban Yesus bagi umat kristiani.

REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA--Kebenaran Yesus Kristus disalib oleh tentara Romawi menyisakan perdebatan. Sebelumnya, John Dominic Crossan, mantan pastor Katolik Irlandia pernah menuliskan sebuah buku yang isinya mengkritik dan mempertanyakan kebenaran penyaliban Yesus.

Terakhir, seorang teolog bernama Teolog Gunnar Samuelsson menulis tesis yang isinya kebenaran penyaliban yesus terkendala masalah deskripsi yang hilang dari sejumlah literasi kuno (injil).

Menanggapi hal itu, Ketua Dewan Dakwah Islamiyah Indonesia, Adian Husaini menuturkan Islam secara tegas mengatakan Nabi Isa AS (dalam kepercayaan islam) atau dalam kepercayaan Nasrani disebut Yesus Kristus tidak meninggal karena disalib atau dibunuh tentara Romawi melainkan ada seseorang yang diserupakan menjadi Nabi Isa As.

"Terdapat banyak ayat dalam Quran yang menerangkan hal ini. Sebelum Islam lahir, teologi Nasrani memang sudah mencapai bentuknya dimana agama tersebut menyakini dua konsep dasar yaitu penyaliban yesus (crucifixion) dan kebangkitan (resurrection)," ujarnya kepada Republika Online, Selasa (29/6).

Ia menjelaskan, konsep dasar itu terbentuk dalam suatu Konsili Nicea. Konsili merupakan dewan uskup dari berbagai wilayah di masa Kekaisaran Romawi yang mengadakan sidang di Nicea atau Iznik, suatu daerah di Turki yang termasuk dalam kekaisaran Romawi.

Kala itu, lanjut Adian menjelaskan, Konsili Nicea dibentuk menyelesaikan perbedaan pendapat dalam Gereja Aleksandria mengenai hakikat Yesus dalam hubungannya dengan Sang Bapa, khususnya, mengenai apakah Yesus memiliki substansi yang sama dengan Tuhan Bapa ataukah sekedar memiliki substansi yang serupa belaka dengan Tuhan Bapa.

Adian bercerita, St. Aleksander dari Aleksandria dan Athanasius berpegang pada pendapat yang pertama sedangkan seorang presbiter populer bernama Arius, yang dari namanya muncul istilah Arianisme, berpegang pada pendapat yang kedua. Konsili memutuskan bahwa pendukung Arius telah keliru dan kemudian ajarannya diasingkan oleh Gereja. 

Ia menambahkan, hasil lain dari konsili ini adalah kesepakatan mengenai waktu perayaan Kebangkitan Kristus (Paskha dalam Bahasa Yunani; Paskah dalam Bahasa Indonesia), hari raya terpenting dalam kalender gerejawi. "Dari konsili Nicea, syahadat Nasrani dimana Yesus disalib dan menjadi Tuhan anak diberlakukan," ungkapnya.

Menurut Adian, Al-Quran mengkritik sangat keras kepercayaan itu. Kritikan itu termaktub dalam satu ayat yang  menerangkan bahwa pengakuan Nabi Isa sebagai anak Tuhan adalah kemungkaran besar. Sebabnya, Islam sedari awal kelahirannya memposisikan Nabi Isa As sama seperti Nabi-nabi sebelumnya, Nabi yang sengaja diutus kepada setiap bangsa untuk mengajarkan cara menyembah Allah. 

"Dalam surah Al-Maidah, dikatakan, sungguh telah kafirlah mengatakan Allah satu dari yang tiga. Kehadiran Quran merupakan usaha mengoreksi Injil secara mendasar," ungkapnya.

Prihal kebenaran proses penyaliban yang banyak diyakini kaum kristiani, Ketua Dewan Dakwah Islamiyah Indonesia, Adian Husaini mengatakan, berdasarkan catatan sejarah tidak satupun dari murid Yesus yang melihat peristiwa itu berlangsung.
Namun, cerita yang berkembang dalam injil Markus, Matius, Yohannes ataupun Petrus berlandaskan dua hal yakni cerita yang berkembang di Masyarakat dan Maria Magdalena.

"Masalah penyaliban itu merupakan hasil terkaan yang berasal dari cerita masyarakat dan Maria Magdalena. Penulis buku Da Vinci Code,  Dan Brown menyatakan Maria itu istrinya yesus," ujar Adian.

Jadi, lanjutnya, melalui Maria inilah awal cerita kebangkitan Yesus. Ia yang melihat sendiri jenazah yesus tidak ada, dan kemudian bercerita tentang penampakan Yesus dihadapan murid-muridnya. Dari situlah muncul cerita kepercayaan Yesus bangkit untuk menebus dosa manusia," paparnya.

Meski begitu, Adian mengakui tradisi penyaliban memang telah diberlakukan di seluruh wilayah kekuasaan Kekaisaran Romawi termasuk Palestina. Hukuman disalib merupakan bentuk hukuman paling hina di zamannya lantaran orang-orang yang disalib merupakan penjahat rendahan.

Hukuman ini, kata Adian, sangat sadis. Mayat dibiarkan menggelantung dan membusuk hingga dimakan burung pembangkai. "Seiring berjalannya waktu, hukuman ini tidak lagi berlaku dan ditinggalkan," ungkapnya.

Kebangkitan

Tak hanya masalah kebenaran Yesus disalib, perdebatan juga muncul ihwal kedatangan Yesus di dunia. Adian mengungkap perdebatan ini kerap terjadi dikalangan Nasrani.
Beberapa aliran dalam agama tersebut percaya, Yesus telah ada di dunia, sebagian lain mengatakan Yesus bakal bangkit 2050 dan keyakinan yang paling keras adalah Yesus akan datang ke dunia setelah orang-orang Yahudi kembali ke tanah yang dijanjikan, Palestina.

"Ada kepercayaan kristen fundamentalis yang meyakini  salah satu tandanya munculnya Yesus adalah kembalinya orang yahudi ke tanah yang dijanjikan. Karena itu, Nasrani  fundamentalis di AS begitu mendukung pendudukan Israel di Palestina. Sebab itu syarat kedatangan yesus," ungkapnya.

Ihwal hubungannya dengan umat Islam, Adian mengatakan umat Islam hanya perlu merujuk pada Al-Quran dan Hadist. Alasannya, Al-Quran secara jelas memaparkan Nabi Isa merupakan bagian dari sejarah, bagi yang percaya terhadap nabi Muhammad SAW dan Al-Quran yang dibawanya, maka persoalan itu bukanlah masalah besar. Ia mengakui Quran tidak menjelaskan secara detail kapan Nabi Isa kembali ke dunia.

Namun, Quran mengatakan setelah diangkat ke langit Nabi Isa akan kembali ke dunia untuk melanjutkan risalah yang dibawa Nabi Muhammad SAW . "Sekarang tinggal pilih, Anda muslim atau tidak. Kalau muslim, Anda seharusnya percaya Nabi Isa itu manusia biasa, Nabi yang mengajarkan cara menyembah kepada Tuhan," pungkasnya.

Char-Minar Mosque , Bukhara

Senin, 28 Juni 2010
Sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1427

the Chor-Minor Madrassah, which was built in 1807 by Khalif Niazkul. He built the madrassah with a cozy courtyard and a pond, a summer mosque, and a four-turret building opening into the architectural complex. Char-Minar means “the four minarets”. It draws attention to itself with its unusual architectural solution, the main focus of which is the four turrets with their sky blue cupolas, which have nothing in common with ordinary minarets.

The cube shaped building is crowned with a slightly flattened cupola, it is without any architectural decor and is finished in ordinary brick. Its facade is partially engulfed by a disproportionaly large arched portal against which the corner turrets are pressed, and only cupolas ornamented with glazed tile bands of geometrical figures. The four sky-blue cupolas look majestic and beautiful against the background of the cloudless sky. Among the one-storey buildings of old Bukhara, the original beauty of Char-Minar is a pleasant addition to the skyline of the city.

Mecca Masjid, which is one of thw world’s largest mosques, is adjacent to Charminar. It has a space for about 10,000 worshippers. In 1614, Mahammed Quli Qutb started the construction of this mosque but it was not finished until 1687. Aurangazeb, one of the Great Mughal Emperor, extended his empire to Golconda Kingdom and only under his rule this mosque’s construction was completed. Several bricks used for construction are made with the soil from Mecca and hence the name, Mecca Masjid. The inscriptions of Quran in the colonnades and the door arches are made from single slab of granite.

Abdulla Khan Mosque , Bukhara

Sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1532

Shaybanid ruler Abdullah Khan II (1556-1598) built this madresa as a residential theological school, immediately opposite his earlier Madar-i Khan Madresa (1566-67), thus creating another of Bukhara’s typical double madrasa ensembles (kush madrasa).

Built during Bukhara’s third and last great construction phase when numerous civic structures were commissioned such as caravan serais, tims, taks, hauz and khanqahs. This madresa is noted for its mastery of architectural form, plan and structure at a period of declining trade, political stability and lack of architectural innovation.

Russian archaeological teams extensively restored the madrasa’s exterior tile work in the 1950s. The volute arch and dado of the pishtaq display intricate floral patterns in majolica and are fine examples of contemporary workmanship.

Jumma Masjid , Ahmedabad

Year of construction: 1430-1440 AD.
Established by: Sultan Mehmood Beghara

Located in Mizapur on the Northern side of the Ahmedabad city, Rani Rupmati mosque is one the ancient mosques of the city. It was built by Sultan Mehmood Beghara. Named after Rani Rupmati, the wife of Sultan, the mosque was constructed during 1430-1440 AD.

This mosque is a shining example of an architecture that is a combination of both Hindu and Muslim Styles. Some of the features that best describe the Rani Roopmati mosque of Ahmedabad, Gujarat are impressive domes, carved galleries and tall minarets. The mosque consists of three domes that are duly supported by pillars. The dome that lies in the central position illuminates the mosque with natural light.

The structural design of the Rani Rupmati mosque of Ahmedabad represents a blend of Hindu and Muslim architecture and this is what makes it stand out above all others. Due to the natural calamity that affected the Ahmedabad city in the year 1818, the mosque lost one of its minarets. The ceiling of the dome is beautified with the Hindu style patterns. The prayer hall of the mosque is of great aesthetic value, consisting of exquisite carvings.

The Wazir Khan Mosque in Lahore, Pakistan, is famous for its extensive faience tile work. It has been described as ‘ a mole on the cheek of Lahore’. It was built in seven years, starting around 1634-1635 A.D., during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jehan. It was built by Shaikh Ilmuddin Ansari, a native of Chiniot, who rose to be the court physician to Shah Jahan and later, the Governor of Lahore. He was commonly known as Wazir Khan. The mosque is located inside the Inner City and is easiest accessed from Delhi Gate.

Magoki-Attori Mosque , Bukhara

Rabu, 16 Juni 2010
Sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1546

None of the ancient monuments of the city have caused as many puzzles for archeologists and historians as this one. The name of the mosque itself indicates the approximate time of its construction: the first part of the name, “Magoki”, means “pit” or “hole” and suggests that the mosque stood much lower than the present level of the city streets and squares.

Ancient Bukharans worshipped fire; they professed Zoroastrian religion. Each family had its own idol, and thought if they prayed to the idols, they would receive happiness and richness. These idols were sold twice a week at the bazaars. Mokh was the king of that time and he himself controlled the marketing. In order to develop trade in the city, he ordered the construction of a temple for the fire-worshippers.

During the excavations led by a great scientist, V. Shishkin, the remains of two buildings were found: the first one was the ancient Zoroastrian temple, and the second, above the Mosque, named “Magoki-Attori”. The Mosque was rebuilt in the 12th century, but only the southern facade and portals remain till now. An earthquake destroyed the Mosque in 1860 and the double dome collapsed; it was rebuilt in the 20th century.

Alaeddin Mosque , Konya

sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1552

Completed in 1220, the Alaeddin Camii is the oldest known Seljuk mosque in Turkey. It is built into the hill that forms the citadel of Konya; its pointed arch and round domes atop two tombs are prominent features in Konya’s cityscape. With the exception of Izzeddin Keykavus, all of the Seljuk sultans after 1156 are interred in the complex.

Its oblong, hypostyle plan is influenced by Arabic classical architecture, but it is very much a Seljuk building. In fact, it is an agglomeration of two major rebuilding campaigns undertaken by both Sultan Izzeddin Keykavus and Sultan Alaeddin Keykavus.

The entrance portal is decorated in alternating grey and white marble and intricately interlocking voussiours. The building itself is made of a variety of stone types, many of them reused from Byzantine buildings.

Once inside the building the hall is divided into bays and aisles by 42 columns reused from antique buildings. These support the vaulted stone ceiling. The ebony minbar dates to 1155 and is probably the only element surviving from the earliest mosque. The mihrab is tiled in three shades of blue, and was probably built by Kerimeddin Erdim Shah, who built the dome.

Edirne Old Mosque

Minggu, 13 Juni 2010

Sumber >>> http://beautifulmosques.com/?p=1559

This is one of the earliest Ottoman mosques in Turkey (completed in 1414 under Mehmet I). It is located east of the square, On Talatpasa Street just past the still functioning Bedesten Bazaar. It’s interesting because Edirne is on the European side, but was conquered before Constantinople, which fell in 1453.

The construction of the Old Mosque of Edirne began in 1402 by order of Emir Suleyman and was completed under the rule of his brother Mehmed I in 1414. The inscriptive plaque above its western portal gives the name of the architect, Haji Alaeddin of Konya and the builder, Omer bin Ibrahim. Built as a Friday Mosque in the market neighborhood of Edirne, the mosque took on its current name following the completion of the new Üç Serefeli Mosque in 1447. The Old Mosque was restored by Mahmud I in 1753 following damage by earthquake and by fire a few years earlier. More recently, the mosque was restored between 1924 and 1934 and in 1965 after the 1953 earthquake.

The mosque is composed of a square prayer hall, 49.5 meters per side, preceded by a five bay portico to the north. The prayer hall is divided into nine equal bays -three rows of three- by the four large piers at the center that support heavy pointed arches carrying the nine domes. The center bay of the northernmost row serves as the court of entry behind the main entrance and is crowned with a lantern above the oculus of its dome. Domes along the longitudinal axis are raised on octagonal drums; the transition to dome, achieved with simple pendentives on the six other domes. The central bay of portico, similarly, is highlighted with a dome and raised cornice among the cross-vaulted side bays. A marble door frame, bearing the inscriptive plaque of the 1753 restoration, occupies the central arch. The row of faucets covered with canopy outside the portico are a contemporary addition.

The interior of the mosque is adorned with painted decoration and large works of calligraphy dating from the second half of the 19th century. The stone mihrab and mimber remain despite damage by fire. The mihrab is unique with its small muqarnas niche placed inside the primary niche. Calligraphic decoration is also employed on the northern façade flanking the marble frame of the muqarnas portal. The fall of terrain west is compensated with a cascade of steps leading up to the western portal, known as the Kuyumcular Kapisi or the Jewelers’ Portal, ornamented with red and white voussoirs on its double arch. The mosque originally had a single minaret rising from the northeast corner of the prayer hall with steps beginning inside the eastern portal. A taller minaret was added outside the northwest corner by Murad II. The construction of the building is cut stone with the exception of the porch, added in brick and stone at a later time.
