Özet:

Every civilization produces places that match the life model in its own content. In this context, Islamic Civilization has also built mosques as temples within its own structure. The formation and development of mosque architecture has taken shape by adding some visual elements to its architecture with the principles of Islamic Civilization. These elements are almost identified with mosque architecture and have been interpreted and included in mosques built all over the world. With the influence of developments in the construction industry and modern architecture, different searches have occurred in mosque architecture. While some of the mosques built in this way are a repetition or a bad imitation of the traditional, some have been transformed to avoid this repetition and have become foreign architectures that are incompatible with the civilization they belong to. Both situations have negative effects on the mosque architecture and led to the reproduction of them of kitsch designs. This study was carried out to read the architecture of the mosques produced with the interpretation of traditional mosque architecture, rather than repetition in different geographies of the world, and in order to question whether they meet the expectation of mosque architecture. In this context, a survey technique was applied to a population of 100 people, 32% of whom were architects and 96% were Muslims. The data obtained from the survey results were analyzed and evaluated in the SPSS program. Thus, the place and importance of the architectural elements of traditional mosques in mosque architecture, the existence of these elements in modern mosques, and the meanings of traditional-modern lines in mosques have been examined. It is thought that this study, which was prepared by using a questionnaire about 22 modern mosques selected from different geographies of the world, will contribute to the development of mosque architecture without repetition and losing its identity.
