The Dhannipur mosque that will come up in Ayodhya in lieu of the demolished Babri mosque, will be square shaped like the Kaaba Sharif in Mecca.
Secretary and spokesperson of the Indo-Islamic Cultural Foundation (IICF) Athar Hussain said, "A mosque measuring 15,000 square feet will be built in Dhannipur village. It will be of the same size as that of the Babri mosque. The shape of the mosque may be completely different from that of the other mosques. It may be square-shaped like the Kaaba Sharif in Mecca, as hinted by architect S. M. Akhtar."
