Abstract: (1056 Views)
The study and examination of Islamic architecture through different intellectual approaches, such as traditionalism, historicism, and phenomenology, highlight the subject's importance in Western researchers' works. Each of these intellectual approaches seeks to present the results of their studies on Islamic architecture from its particular perspective. What definitions of Islamic architecture have been provided by each of these methods, and how does the difference in their interpretative approach contribute to understanding Islamic architecture? The present study aims to show what definition of Islamic architecture has been presented by each of these two perspectives and what are the differences and commonalities between them through a comparative study of views based on phenomenology (HenriStierlin) and historicism (Oleg Grabar). It takes on the assumption that each of the two researchers presents a different definition of the relationship between Islam and architecture. The research findings indicate that from Grabar's point of view, Islamic architecture has no connection with the religion of Islam, and the relationship between Islam and architecture cannot convey any particular meaning in terms of religion. While Stierlin considers Islamic architecture to be derived from the essence of the religion of Islam. The present study employs a descriptive-analytical method and a comparative approach to study the elements and components that shape the mosque from the phenomenological perspective of HenriStierlin and the historicism of Oleg Grabar
