Mosque Architecture in America

Maryam Eskandari is a mosque architect and founder of MIIM Designs.  She say most non-Muslims think designing a mosque is full of rules. But it’s not. She told Charles Monroe-Kane that the only rule is you have to point out the direction to Mecca. This is called the marabji.
