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.

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

Rumi

Ever since happiness heard your name, it has been running through the streets trying to find you.

Hafez

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.

And so it is, that both the Devil and the angelic Spirit present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice.

Rumi

Love will find its way through all languages on its own.

Rumi

A foreign tourist to Iran has made a harmony with Nasir ol Molk Mosque in Shiraz city

It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.

Rumi

Water, stories, the body, all the things we do, are mediums that hid and show what's hidden.

Rumi

However much I might try to expound or explain Love, when I come to Love itself, I am ashamed of my explanations... Love alone can explain the mysteries of love and lovers.

Rumi

May this marriage be full of laughter, our every day in paradise.

Rumi

Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.

Rumi

The best time to visit is between 7:30-8:30. Most probably you will be the only visitor during these hours.

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.
