The Mohammad Rasul-Allah Mosque is a mosque located within the grounds of the Namazi hospital in Shiraz, in the province of Fars, Iran.
The mosque was designed without a traditional courtyard; [1] however, it integrates the elements of traditional Islamic architecture combined with Persian specifics and modern sustainable methods including elements of modern design. [2] [3] A minaret is located adjacent to the two entrances, that are connected to a riwaq or arcade, formed by a perforated curtain wall with Islamic geometric patterns. [1] The interior of the mosque features calligraphy, stucco work, and muqarnas. [4]
The mosque is built around an old prayer hall surrounded by trees, which used to be part of a garden on the hospital site. [1] As of 2023 [update] , the trees were estimated to be 70 years old. [5]
