Request: photos of mosque interiors[edit]

In case this is a good place to ask: I've been working for a while on articles about historic mosques and monuments in Morocco and one of the things that's missing the most is pictures of the interiors of important historic mosques. Since there are restrictions on non-Muslims entering, it's hard to find freely-licensed pictures (and I've looked as thoroughly as possible on Commons and Flickr already). In particular, any photos of architecturally important elements would be very helpful: e.g. mihrabs, the domes or muqarnas ceilings in front of the mihrabs, courtyards (sahns), any historic minbars (although some of these are now in museums like Dar Batha), and so on. Some notable articles that need this include University of al-Qarawiyyin, Kutubiyya Mosque, Andalusian Mosque, Great Mosque of Rabat, Kasbah Mosque (Marrakech), Mouassine Mosque, Great Mosque of Fes Jdid and others of course (feel free to look around similar pages and you'll see if pictures are missing).

There could be FOP problems for Mosques built after 1950, I'll try once I travel domestically more often. MakhzenHuman (talk) 01:46, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'd also like to request a nice image of al-Qundusi's lafd al-jalala displayed inside the Zawiya of Moulay Idris II, visible in this image. إيان (talk) 20:30, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request: images of Moroccan newspapers in public domain[edit]

There are a number of old newspapers discussed here that are now in public domain. If anyone could visit the archives and upload some images of them—scans or photos, it would be appreciated. إيان (talk) 20:30, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
