By Thomas M. Weber-Karyotakis & Ammar Khammash
The book compiles almost 450 sites in Jordan with partly little known architectural and natural monuments of Islamic heritage. The focus is on places of prayer and general commemoration of the Islamic religion: mainly mosques, tombs of martyrs, sheikhs and scholars, but also memorials of Islamic history. The time span covered is the period from the early phase of the spread of Islam from the rule of the Rashidun caliphs to the end of the Ottoman Empire and the beginning of the Hashemite Kingdom. The sequence of the individual places is in alphabetical order in the manner of a geographical gazetteer. The individual monuments are accompanied by descriptions, plans, sections and color photographs, which allow the user of the book to get a good idea of the character and state of preservation of the Islamic monument.
