This is an Excel spreadsheet with 160 mosques and prayer
places listed in chronological order along with GPS coordinates and other information. These places date starting from the very first mosques built in Medina onwards. I have tried to produce an exhaustive list for the first two centuries of Islam, then major mosques for the third century, followed by a few important later mosques. I have been updating this list on a regular basis for the last twenty years, but now that it is published here, I will post a new list only after any major additions.
An active up-to-date list is published on my website: https://nabataea.net/ Follow the menu Founding of Islam
/Qibla Tool. This tool provides a graphical overview of this
spread-sheet. I have included one column in this spreadsheet with my own classifications.
