• Koutoubia Mosque - The city of Marrakech was captured by the Almohads after the death of the Almoravid leader Ali ibn Yusuf in 1147. The Almohads wanted no trace of religious monuments built by the Almoravids, their bitter enemies, because they considered them heretics. Abd-al-Mu’min, who won the territory, was responsible for the construction of the first Koutoubiya mosque on the grounds of the former palace of Ali ibn Yusuf in the southwest quarter of the medina. This first mosque was built between 1147 and 1154 and completed in 1157. This first mosque was rebuilt under the Almohad Caliph Yacoub El-Mansour, because halfway through construction, the mihrab (prayer niche) was off center and not oriented towards Mecca and underwent many changes until the end of the 12th century. When the Andalusians defeated the Almohad dynasty. The alignment problem was a minor problem, as devotees could always adjust the direction when offering prayers in the hall, but the decision was made to build a new mosque next to the first structure. The first mosque was completed while the second mosque was under construction. The second mosque was built identical to the first except for its orientation.

The layout, architectural designs, inscriptions, dimensions and materials used for construction were all the same. The plan and design of the minaret remained the same in both buildings. While in the first mosque, the orientation of the mihrab was 5 degrees out of alignment with the direction of Mecca, in the second mosque, the orientation was 10 degrees, therefore further from Mecca than the first mosque.

These two structures were built during the reign of Abd al-Mu’min (reign 1130-1163). The second mosque was started after 1154 and the building was partially completed in September 1158, with the first prayers held in the mosque at that time. It was completed in the 1190s, although the reported completion dates vary between 1162, 1190 and 1199. The first mosque eventually deteriorated.
