Dissect a Building of Your Choosing
Head to Al-Islam.org, the Ahlul Bayt Digital
Internet Library. After getting your bearings on
the home page, head to the Gallery of Photos on
the left. Look through the Sacred Sites
collection, finding one we have not discussed.
Jot its name down, then dissect it on a slide or
two.
