Aleppo's Great Umayyad Mosque Reopens
The Great Umayyad Mosque in the Old City of Aleppo officially resumed the call to prayer and reopened after comprehensive restoration work that lasted for years, reviving one of the city's most prominent religious and historical landmarks. The mosque sustained extensive damage during the years of war, and the historic minaret, which collapsed in 2013, was rebuilt using half of its original stones, along with renovations to the arcades, courtyard, and water fountain. Officials and religious figures attended the reopening ceremony, and the site was brought back to life as the call to prayer was raised once again—a scene that reflects a returning sense of hope and heritage.
