About Essence of Faith جومات
د ایمان جوهر یو جومات دی چې د سعودي عربستان په طایف کې د یو صحرايي چاپیریال لپاره ډیزاین شوی. دا ډیزاین لږترلږه بڼې د اسلامي دودیزو عناصرو سره یوځای کوي. پاکې کرښې او خلاص ځایونه یو آرام چاپیریال رامنځته کوي، او کړکۍ داسې ځای پر ځای شوي چې طبیعي رڼا دننه واړوي. اصلي د لمانځه تالار لمونځ کوونکي قبلې ته لار ښيي، چې د نارینه و او ښځو لپاره جلا دروازې او د لمانځه ځایونه لري. د اودس ځایونه، مناره، د امام کوربنه او دیوانیه د دیني او ټولنیزو کارونو ملاتړ کوي. اصلي جوړښت د كانكریت او خښتو نه جوړ شوی، چې د سټوکو، لرګي، شیشې او ډبرې پوښښونه لري.
