The ________ is the decorated niche inside a mosque that indicates the direction of Mecca.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "Mihrab".

Explanation:

  • A semicircular niche throughout the wall of a mosque showing the qibla; that is, the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca, and hence the way that Muslims will face while they pray. Thus the wall into which a mihrab appears was the "qibla wall."
  • A chanter calling for people to pray. Fana is a religious figure; in fact, a few of Muhammad's hereditary predecessors, worshiped in Shiite Islam.
  • It is traditional, when entering a mosque, to remove somebody's shoes and put them on the entrance rack. This is accomplished out of respect and also to avoid soiling the interior floor of the prayer hall — prayer halls do not have chairs or benches, just row after row of carpets, aligned to face the holy sites of Mecca in Arabia.
