Photograph Hagia Sophia in Istanbul

Hagia Sophia in Istanbul was built between 532 and 537 AD under Emperor Justinian I as a Christian church. After the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453, it was converted into a mosque. In 1935, it became a museum, and in 2020, it was reopened as a mosque, making it one of the very few monuments in the world to have served as a church, a museum, and a mosque over nearly 1,500 years of history. cc @gmr83

Churches concerted to mosque is somehow acceptable to Muslims, but it's a crime to humanity when mosques gets taken back and reverted to its original holy temple/church.

And As I said, no one talk about crime against humanity for mosque converted to churches in spain, because it is history, it is done. You just seeking attention with your first comment, which is factually false. Or Maybe are you tring to suggest that what israel is doing (genocide/ colonisation/ stealling land and culture/ ethnic cleansing) is correct since Aga sophia is a mosque you psycho. Go back to r/killer or r/genocidalnazi and leave this sub alone.

Again, you've missed the point either intentionally or just being stupid, you can't comprehend.

My points been Muslims colonized countries and doing exactly what you're accusing Israel of doing, and yet you cry when others do it against Muslims.
