MOSQUE OF SULTAN AHMID, CON-
STANTINOPLE, TURKEY-One of the most
interesting sights in the capital of Turkey is
the Mohammedan temple. The temple has
three essential parts which must never be
wanting. These are the Mihrab, or Hall of
Prayer, which marks the direction of Mecca,
which consequently have a different position
in different countries; a place for the ablu-
tions, which precede prayer, and finally, a
large space for the entry and departure of
the faithful and for the reading of the Koran
and prayers.
