The Lulua Mosque (Arabic: مسجد لؤلؤة) is a mosque in Cairo, Egypt, that was built in 1015–16 AD. It is thought[by whom?] that it was constructed during the reign of al-Hakim. The mosque partially collapsed in 1919, but was later rebuilt by the Dawoodi Bohra. It is located at southern cemetery, Muqattam hills.
The mosque is a three-storey tower-like structure having a rectangular plan, and was constructed of limestone and brick. The ground floor was partially excavated from the hill. The structure contains two mihrab—an unornamented one in the rear, and an ornamented one on the second floor. The entrance to the mosque is triple-arched.
Zakir Abdul Karim Naik (Urdu: ذاکر عبدالکریم نائیک; born 18 October 1965) is an Indian public speaker on the subject of Islam and comparative religion. He is the founder and president of the Islamic Research Foundation (IRF), a non-profit organisation that owns the Peace TV channel based in Dubai, UAE. He is sometimes referred to as a televangelist. Before becoming a public speaker, he trained as a doctor. He has written two booklets on Islam and comparative religion. He is regarded as an exponent of the Salafi ideology; he places a strong emphasis on individual scholarship and the rejection of "blind Taqlid", which has led him to repudiate the relevance of sectarian or Madh'hab designations, all the while reaffirming their importance.
