Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera – Paradise Mosque in Harran, Turkey

We're currently in Haoran, which is in the southern part of Turkey.

It's actually close to the Syrian border. And you can see this was

the Grand Mosque. This they say was actually one of the first

mosques that were built in this part of the world by Marwan.

Marwan is the father of Abdulmalik number one and one of the first of

the Omega Kalif. So this is within the first century of Islam that

this mosque apparently was built. I believe this was destroyed by

Hulagu. Han much later. But this minaret, I mean, of course, it's

been through some restorations over the centuries. But you can

see that minaret it's been standing, you can see the top part

actually, and the bottom part. And if you look to the left, this is

to the left, you can see those new mustards. They say that half of

them the Tamia was here. This is where he was born, and that's why

he's called Imitate me, I'll Hirani. But then when he was quite

young, I think maybe eight or 10 or something like that. He went to

Damascus. And then that's where he continued and that's where he died

as well. He's actually buried in Damascus. I remember visiting his

grave. It's in the

it's actually in the woods or in the University of Damascus. He's

buried in next to him on a small mound, just completely separate

from everywhere else and next to him is Ibaka, Thea or hemo Mala as

well. The manifester of the Quran.
