| Abstract | ||
| Kofa Mosque is considered as one of the prominent centers of religious tourist attractions in Kufa holy city. It is the fourth of the best Islamic mosques in the world after Alharam Mosque, Alnabawi Mosque, and Alaqssa Mosque. Kufa Mosque has a very old history ; it was a mosque for the angels before the creation of Adam(God's peace on him) and it became his house and praying place after the creation. Due to its great religious status ,the Mosque assumes many roles such as those of praying, preaching, unifying as well as the social and the political ones. These roles were and are still effective in alleviating the Moslems and in enlightening the Islamic society. The Great Kufa Mosque is distinguished for having the shrines of so many prophets like those of Adam, Noah, Ibrahim, Mohammed, Alkhudher , and Jubrael (God's peace on them all), and the shrines of Imam Ali, Imam Zain-Alabideen, and Imam Al-Sadiq(God's peace on them all).Besides, it has the holy tombs of Al-Husain's ambassador, Muslim Bin AK heel(God's peace on him), Hani Bin Erwa, and Almukhtar Althagafi. | ||
