History needs elaborating

The History section starts with

Coffeehouses in Mecca became a concern of imams who viewed them as places for political gatherings and drinking...

while I would expect something along the lines:

The first historical mention of an establishment resembling a coffeehouse comes from ... mentioned in a (fatwa?) ..., where the practice of ... is discussed.

Are there really no WP:RS sources about it? Zezen (talk) 08:45, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

a new image to be added to the article

There is an Ottoman miniature painting from the second half of the sixteenth century showing the interior of a coffeehouse in Istanbul around that time. I would suggest that picture to be added to this article - as a rather early image of a coffeehouse interior. The article already has an Ottoman coffeehouse image, but that's by a western artist and later. This, however, is a locally produced image. http://tarihkurdu.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Bir-Kahvehanenin-%C4%B0%C3%A7ini-G%C3%B6steren-16.-Y%C3%BCzy%C4%B1l%C4%B1n-%C4%B0kinci-Yar%C4%B1s%C4%B1na-Ait-Bir-Minyat%C3%BCr.jpg
