The aim of the article is to discuss the notion of religious space in David Macaulay’s1 Mosque through the exploration of the architecture of the mosque not only as a structure serving religious purposes but also a space of social activity bringing together the members of the community. Macaulay created Mosque as a response to the 9/11 attacks and its complex political and socio cultural global impact. Through the deployment of the mosque as a conceptual framework the notions of mobility, displacement and belonging are addressed as intersecting factors forging communal and individual identities.
