Onion Dome

---

Pretentious and beautiful. The charm is that emanating from a Mosque building or other domed buildings (especially the onion-shaped dome) as one component of the Mosque architecture, the true dome of the onion is not just to show the splendor and the beauty of the building alone. Moreover, the onion dome also has a function as a marker of the Qibla direction from the outside and illuminates the inside/interior of the Mosque.

A little history about the Doom

---

Like the tower and mihrab, historically the dome was not known at the time of the Prophet Muhammad, the initial architecture of the Rasul mosque was rectangular with the wall as a surrounding barrier.

Along the inside of the wall is a kind of porch which is directly related to the open field in the middle. Along with the development of architectural technology, the dome appeared as a cover for the mosque building.

The dome does not originate and is rooted in Islamic architecture. That is because indeed Islamic teachings do not directly bring physical cultural traditions or Islam does not teach concretely the architectural form. Islam gives an opportunity for its people to determine their physical choices on the mind.

Over time, the use of onion dome was growing, its use is no longer limited only to mosque buildings, as in our area, Aceh
As one of the areas with high Islamic civilization, where nearly ninety-nine percent of the population are adherents of Islam, the use of onion domes has also penetrated other buildings, such as pavilions, Government Offices and even residential houses, with the reason that a specific feature of the earth of the Veranda of Mecca, as the other nickname for the province of Aceh.

One thing is certain, every building that uses an onion dome as the highest accessory on the roof, will definitely look beautiful, majestic and earthy, as in the picture I show above, the onion dome is not in a Mosque, Government Office or residence , but the onion dome is an ornament of a public transport terminal building in the city of Lhokseumawe, Aceh

So a little story about the onion dome, let's get ready to go to the mosque to perform Friday prayers, because the sunny weather and the gentle breeze is a guarantee of loneliness in congregational prayer together, we are in Aceh have been preparing to welcome Friday from the morning, baecause in our customs, culture and local wisdom in Aceh, we do not do heavy work on Fridays, such as farming in the fields or looking for fish in the sea, we also do not travel far so that Friday prayer congregation can run smoothly without any constraints
