A special exhibition in Makkah is showcasing six historic marble tiles that once decorated the halls of the Grand Mosque, offering visitors a glimpse into the rich heritage of Islamic architecture.
The tiles, dating back to 1881 CE (1299 AH), feature beautiful Arabic calligraphy and detailed craftsmanship. Their inscriptions include the names of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and the Prophet’s companions: Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, Umar ibn Al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, and Ali ibn Abi Talib.
The Exhibition of the Two Holy Mosques Architecture is displaying the tiles alongside other rare historical artifacts from Islam’s two holiest sites.
Officials said the items were carefully preserved after being removed from the corridors of the Holy Mosque in Makkah to protect their historical value.
The exhibition has attracted researchers and visitors interested in the history of Islamic architecture. It also features rare manuscripts and architectural materials connected to the development of the Two Holy Mosques.
Covering an area of 1,200 square meters, the exhibition presents the history of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque from the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) through different Islamic eras up to the modern Saudi period.
The display highlights major expansion and renovation projects carried out over the years to accommodate the increasing number of pilgrims and Umrah visitors.
The preservation of the marble tiles reflects ongoing efforts to protect Islamic historical heritage and share it with future generations.
