Mosoul | Iraq | Mosque of Prophet Yunus | unknown | 1393 AD |
![]() |
A shrine was built on this spot in 16 AH or around 637 AD to commemorate the prophet Yunus (Jonah). Centuries later in 1393 AD Tamurlane tore down the shrine and built a mosque on the spot. The yellow line comes from Mecca, so this mosque's qibla points to Mecca. |
