The great mosque is an important monument in Tiznit because of
its archaeological foundations, historical value, and significant
scientific prestige. It has all features, including its architectural
elements and units, to play its due role. For example, it includes
riwaqs for prayer, a minbar (pulpit), a mihrab, a minaret, etc. The
Mosque comprises a court, four riwaqs, a room for orator, a room
for pulpit, and a minaret. An ablution fountain was attached to the
southeast side. The walls were built using Tapia (compressed dry
mud), and the ceilings were made of wood. The present study
aims to highlight the archaeological and architectural - in addition
to the religious and scientific- values of the Mosque. This issue
helps keep the mosque with its original architectural elements and
enhance the tourist attraction of the city. Using the historic, descriptive, and analytical approaches, the study describes, documents,
and analyzes all architectural and decorative elements of the
mosque.
