Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan mosque in Abu Dhabi has been selected as one of the most impressive contemporary mosques in the world and featured in "Mosques: Splendors of Islam".
The book will be officially launched in Dubai in November 2018 to commemorate the "Year of Zayed" and the 100 years since the birth of the founding father of the UAE - as well as the namesake of one of the most pivotal mosques of the 21st century: the Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan mosque.
The book is a culmination of Leyla Uluhanli's continuing efforts to promote and support unique Islamic culture around the world.
The book is supported by prominent scholars in Islamic culture, history and architecture and features stunning original and archive photography of 53 global mosques, accompanied by narratives on every aspect of the mosques story and architecture, including the design, calligraphic inscriptions, history and both religious and secular significance.
"The 'Splendors of Islam' book is for me, first and foremost, an honorable opportunity to share my fascination with intricate Islamic architecture with the world," said Uluhanli.
"Mosques: Splendors of Islam", published by Rizzoli New York in November 2017 is already in its second run, and is available around the world across all leading bookstores and major online resources.
The French edition is to be on shelves in September 2018 and will be published by Citadelles & Mazenod.
