The article “The Umayyad Congregational Mosque of Jarash in Jordan and its Relationship to Early Mosques” by Alan Walmsley and Kristoffer Damgaard presents the findings from archaeological excavations and surveys of an early mosque in Jarash, Jordan. The study attributes the mosque’s construction to a period of urban renewal during the reign of Caliph Hisham (AD 724–743). The authors reconstruct the mosque’s layout and discuss its significance in the context of early Islamic architecture and urbanism. They also explore how this mosque relates to other early Islamic mosques in terms of design and function.
