The analysis of narratives which forbid ornamenting mosques

Masjids, or mosques as we call them today, are one of the most important symbols of Islamic development and civilization. Therefore, the construction of mosques has been given importance in every period of history, and over time, large and magnificent mosques were built. It is known that some âlims do not tolerate the decoration of mosques, based on the rumors in hadith sources that claim to decorate and build masjids in a splendid way. In our research, these rumors prohibiting the decoration of masjids were identified and analyzed in terms of sened and text and in this way tried to contribute to be understood correctly. Our research consists of an introduction and two parts. In the introduction, information was given about the subject, purpose, and importance of the research, its method and sources, and a brief history of some concepts and temples were emphasized. In the first chapter, the detection of rumors prohibiting decorating the thishs and the criticism of their seneds were emphasized, and in the second chapter, the subject and content of these rumors were criticized. The study was completed with the results and evaluation part.
