    (Translated by Google) I hope to investigate the status of the questions asked because this question reflects ignorance and hatred against Muslims, and this is an Islamic mosque in Amman characterized by a rare architectural character, as it is built of white and black stones only Please stop practicing racism against Islam and Muslims, as Islam is a religion of love, brotherhood and peace. (Original) ارجو التحري في وضع الاسئله المطروحه لان هذا السؤال ينم جهل وحقد ضد المسلمين وهذا عباره مسجد اسلامي في عمان يتميز بطابع معماري نادر حيث انه مبني من الحجر الابيض والاسود فقط الرجاء التوقف عن ممارسة العنصريه ضد الاسلام والمسلمين حيث ان الاسلام دين المحبه والاخوه والسلام.
