Great Mosque of Sana'a
Great Mosque of Sana'a ((アラビア語:الجامع الكبير بصنعاء) ''Al-Jāmiʿ al-Kabīr bi-Ṣanʿāʾ'') is an ancient mosque in Sana'a, Yemen, just east of the old Ghumdan Palace site. Dating to the seventh century, it was reportedly built in part from the materials of the Ghumdan palace. This was destroyed by Caliph Uthman because he feared it could be used as a stronghold for a rebellion
Local legend traces the mosque's history to the period of Muhammad. The building has undergone several renovations in later centuries. An important archaeological find was the Sana'a manuscript, discovered here during restoration in 1972. It had some early manuscripts of the Koran.
==Geography==
The mosque was built upon the site of the Ghumdan Palace, between the two areas of Sana'a, Al-Quati and Al-Sailah. The city's souq was moved next to the mosque, affording it with greater safety because of its proximity to a religious building. Along with the mosque, the palace site also houses a prison and barracks for the armed forces, built during the Ottoman Empire.
In later years, city planning, expansion and orientation were greatly influenced by the construction of the Great Mosque and two other mosques on the city's north side.〔 Though there are more than one hundred mosques in the Old City, the Grand Mosque is the largest and most notable of them.〔
