we should not use the word mosque we should say masjid! Mosque is a word the crusaders gave the muslims, its short for mosquito, basically means something which is dirty,because mosquitos are always dwelling in dirty smelly surroundings breeding! so we shud say masjid peace brother

I was unaware of this historic claim regarding
origin of the word "mosque". Even if correct,
in modern English I believe "mosque" is purely descriptive, with no stigma of any kind. "Masjid" is the Arabic term, a word unknown to most English speakers. Having used "mosque", with no disrespect intended,
so often in my videos, I feel that remains acceptable.

No. That is nearby the Blue Mosque and far older. It was once the world's greatest Christian church during Roman/Byzantine Empire times, in the city of Constantinople, and known as Sancta Sophia.
When the Ottoman Empire conquered in 1453, the church was converted into a mosque (Haiga Sophia) and the city renamed as well, becoming Istanbul. The building is now a museum, displaying the history of both faiths. It appears early in my video of Turkey, "What the Sultan Saw".
