Egypt is home to more than 100,000 mosques built in a variety of architectural styles, but now, all new mosques is the country will be built in a single style approved by the Egyptian Ministry of Endowments.
The Ministry announced on Feb. 7 that it will prepare an “Egyptian Code” for the design of mosques in a “unique and distinctive architectural style nationwide.” The architectural model is to be the product of a competition whose date has yet to be determined.
