The council of the revolutionary youth on Thursday held a discussion on the Islamic architecture at its headquarters in Sanaa in which Dr. Moeen Abdulmalik, a member of the coordination council Tanawo, talked about diversity of the Islamic architecture and its impact on politics in Yemen.
The event put the spotlight on the status of mosque and school and other social, political and cultural types in ancient Yemeni states of Zaidi, Sulayhid and Rasulid, with a special focus on how modern Yemen can benefit from its historical civilisation.
The significance of studying political and architectural thoughts in the Middle Islamic Ages leads to understanding the changes to the intellectual frameworks of the Yemeni civilisation.
"During the scientific shining eras and Yemen's decade-long interaction with its regional atmosphere, the concept of identity and rebuilding the Yemeni human in a way that lives up to the genius of the place and the time," he said.
Engineer Nazih Al-Shamsan stressed in his presentation the importance of rewriting the Yemeni history on foundations that strengthens the identity and allegiance of the Yemeni human.
For his part, engineer Esam Zuhrah pointed the significance of organising such symposiums to boost the awareness of the youth that Yemen is the source of architectural and civilised thought in the Islamic world.
Zuhrah praised the efforts of the council to take care of the youth and reminding them of their civilisation so that they can benefit from it.
The symposium came within a series of political forum events the council plans to organise across the republic.
