Hence, they turned fire temples into mosques and destroyed some of them and built mosques in their place. In different historical periods, different elements were added to them with different styles. In this research, questions such as the characteristics of the physical and spatial elements of the fire temple and how they change and become a mosque, are clearly stated and the researcher understood the reason for the changes in the buildings. This research has been done by descriptive analytical method with a historical perspective, which has been collected through data collection, and the result of studies on the buildings of mosques and fire temples in the Islamic period is as follows: Mosques consist of 4 structures They are the first structure of the nave + the courtyard of the mosque.
