Nasir al-Mulk 'Pink Mosque'

The rarity of architecture like this makes Nasir al-Mulk all the more precious.

Though Masjid al-Aqsa in Jerusalem and Istanbul's Blue Mosque both feature stained glass windows, on the whole they are fairly uncommon in mosque architecture.

The multitude of stained glass windows turn the inside of the mosque into a riotous wonderland of color that is absolutely breathtaking.

You know the value of every article of merchandise, but if you don't know the value of your own soul, it's all foolishness.

Rumi

The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms; yet, they testify to invisible love.

Rumi

It's also known as the "Pink Mosque" for the rose-colored tiles that cover the interior

Even if you are the world’s least religious person, you might feel your hands coming together in prayer naturally when you see the brilliance of this light. Perhaps the builders of this mosque wanted to show their “faith” through the morning light shining through this stained glass.

There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground; there are a thousand ways to go home again.

Rumi

Everything that is made beautiful and fair and lovely is made for the eye of one who sees.

An enemy to whom you show kindness becomes your friend, excepting lust, the indulgence of which increases its enmity.

If you find the mirror of the heart dull, the rust has not been cleared from its face.

From the outside, the Nasir al-Mulk Mosque in Shiraz, Iran, seems like a fairly traditional house of worship -- but it's hiding a gorgeously colorful secret.
