Bab Berdieyinne Mosque
The Bab Berdieyinne Mosque (Arab: بردعين, French: Berdaïne) is a religious building in the historical city center of Meknes, Morocco, constructed in the 18th century. On 19 February 2010, its minaret collapsed during Friday prayers, causing at least 41 fatalities and many injuries. The area had received heavy rain over the preceding days. The collapse of buildings in the older parts of Morocco's cities is fairly common but the collapse of minarets is rare.
King Mohammed VI ordered the minaret be rebuilt according to historical specifications, and has ordered that all old mosques be appraised for structural stability.〔(Morocco minaret collapse toll rises to 41 ), Hindustan Times, 20 February 2010〕 The reconstruction of the minaret is to be "to its original form". The 18th-century mosque was built on the orders of Morocco's first female minister, Khnata bent Bakkar, and was constructed of rammed earth. The minaret itself was said to be four centuries old and Meknes is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.〔 The collapse is the worst of its kind to have happened in Morocco.〔 There was public criticism in Morocco for the apparent lack of maintenance at the mosque.〔
== Collapse ==
On 19 February 2010 a minaret collapsed at the Bab Berdieyinne mosque.〔 The collapse followed several days of heavy rain which has been blamed for weakening the minaret, which was made of rammed earth. Of the 300 worshipers inside 41 were killed and 75 were injured; others were buried beneath the rubble. Rescue attempts were hindered by narrow access routes to the mosque and the potential for other walls collapsing.
The collapse occurred at 12.45 GMT on 19 February 2010, following several days of heavy rain in the area, which the government has blamed for the collapse.〔〔〔 The rains had already killed people through flooding and had destroyed roads and crops.〔 More than 300 worshippers were in the mosque at the time for Friday prayers and the collapse came just as the imam was about to begin his sermon.〔 Funeral prayers were due to have been said as part of the sermon and a body was present in the mosque.〔 The last body was recovered from the mosque on 20 February, bringing the total killed to 41 with a further 75 injured.〔 At one point up to 80 people were said to be buried under the rubble which rescuers removed using shovels and their bare hands.〔 The lightly injured are being treated in hospital in Meknes, and the more seriously wounded have been sent to Fes.〔 Of the 75 injured, 17 required long term hospitalisation.〔
