A reconstruction of Al-Masjid al-Nabawi in Medina by final-year desktop VR students in the Faculty of Computing, Information Systems, and Mathematics, Kingston University (UK).

Under constraints of time, resources, and space within which to build, the mosque-building team, Faruk Kurt, Naqash Baig, Haleema Khurshid, Asif Hussain, and Omama Farooqui, have created, with a feel of authenticity both inside and out, a very creditable simplified model.

The soundtrack is 'Rassoul Allah' by the wonderful Cheikha Rimitti.

Postscript: after posting the video I was advised that "Your video, al Masjid al Nabawi , may include content that is owned or licensed by ... WMG", in other words the Cheikha Rimitti soundtrack. So a personal plea to WMG: if nothing else, I'm doing some informal marketing for you of a singer too little known outside of the world of rai; I like to think that her incredible music and voice belong to the whole world, that the world in however small a way becomes a better and happier place for listening to her.
