Each of teachers, religious men and Mullahs
took essential roles in Mosques, which serves in different areas.
I can say that the roles of mosques during
last century was not merely to Group prayer, Friday worships and worshiping
purposes alone, lieu it, the
Muslims were used Mosques for different aims such as used it for various types
of social meetings and gatherings.
The Mosques despite place of worship
has diverse roles like center of staying poor people, displaced and Immigrants
inside. Those who were responsible in the mosques provided meals for them.
For
those who stayed at mosques always help others and tried to solve their
problem, meanwhile, they never became obstacle in front of others. That means
this establishment has motivating characters in the history of our city in the
eras of religions, intellectual, education, social and coexistence among city’s
components for instance: Christians, Jews and Arminian.
Role
of Mosques in education and learning
If
we want to analysis the education and learning process, we cannot ignore
significance of Mosques in spreading knowledge until fifty years ago. This is
confirmed that Mosques were religious, educational, learning, and social
establishment. Unfortunately compare to present, I can settle that the roles of
Mosques due to conflicts among Islamic groups and Islamic political organizations
has been decreased. Additionally, some
religious men were taken crucial responsibility in the last century for behalf
of increase significance of Mosques, but recently kinds of them are rare.
Tutors
at Mosques had different level of knowledge, the Mullahs of Mosques were teaching
others and had his Hujira (special room for teaching new comers by providing
knowledge about Islamic rules and Sunnah). The Mullahs were absolutely aware of
Islamic sciences and had ability to complete Faqe’s studying stages. The Mullah
who has a ability to provide Mullah certification calls "Big Mullah”.
Moreover,
a trained mullah will have studied Islamic traditions (Hadith), and Islamic law
(Fiqh). Such figures often have memorized the Quran. Uneducated
villagers may frequently classify a literate Muslim with a less than complete
Islamic training as their "mullah" or religious cleric. Mullahs with
varying levels of training lead prayers in mosques, deliver religious sermons,
and perform religious ceremonies such as birth rites and funeral services. They
also often teach in a type of Islamic school known as a Madrasah. Three
kinds of knowledge are applied most frequently in interpreting Islamic texts
(i.e. the Quran, Hadith,etc.) for matters of Shariah, i.e., Islamic law.
