Ez-Zitouna Mosque or Ezzitouna Mosque or Mosque of El-Zituna (, literally meaning ''the Mosque of Olive'') is a major mosque in Tunis, Tunisia. The mosque is the oldest in the Capital of Tunisia and covers an area of with nine entrances. It has 160 authentic columns brought originally from the ruins of the old city of Carthage.〔 The mosque is known to host one of the first and greatest universities in the history of Islam.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= About Zaytuna Institute )〕 Many Muslim scholars were graduated from the Al-Zaytuna for over a thousand years. From Ibn 'Arafa, one of the greatest scholars of Islam, Imam Maziri,〔From Sicilian city of Mazara (today Mazara del Vallo).〕 the great traditionalist and jurist to the famous Tunisian poet Aboul-Qacem Echebbi and countless others all taught there.〔〔〔 〕 == History == Ez-Zituna was the second mosque to be built in Ifriqiya and the Maghreb region after the Mosque of Uqba in Al-Kairouan. The exact date of building varies according to source. Ibn Khaldun and El-Bakri wrote that it was built in 116 Hijri (731 C.E.) by Obeid-Allah Ibn Al-Habhab.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Jemaâ Ezzitouna )〕 A second source states that the Umayyad Hisham Ibn Abdel-Malek ordered the building;〔 however, Ahmed In Abu Diyaf and Ibn Abi Dinar attributed the order to Hassan Ibnu-Noauman who led the conquest of Tunis and Carthage.〔〔 Most scholars agreed that the third possibility is the strongest by evidence as it is unlikely that the city of Tunis remained a long time without a mosque, after its conquest in 79 Hijri.〔〔〔 Thus the closest date is 84 Hijri (703 CE), and what El-Habhab did was in fact enlarge the mosque and improve its architecture.〔 It was used as a place of prayer by the Muslim conqueror Hassan Ibn an-No'man. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ez-Zituna Mosque」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
