Islamic art is not the art that only related to ordinances of Islam. This art often incorporates secular elements that have not been banned by some Islamic scholars.
Islamic art is one of the oldest and most ancient activities that Muslims have been working on for many years. This era was one of the glorious eras of the art history and one of the most valuable human achievements in artistic fields and includes a wide variety of arts such as architecture, calligraphy, painting, ceramics, etc.
The shrine of Imam Reza in Mashhad is one of the most famous religious buildings in Iran.
The architecture used in the shrine of Imam Reza is considered as the pure Islamic art. This shrine includes dome, minarets, finials, porches, museums and library. The inner surface of the dome is decorated with stalactite and the outer surface is covered with copper clay and a layer of gold. Before the minarets were next to the mosques for saying adhan, they were used as guiding towers that guided travelers.
