What’s a mosque doing right next to the latest version of the Ruined Synagogue? Apparently its never been used as mosque, but was built by the mother of a jewish man who converted to Islam. Subsequently he was evicted from the Jewish quarter and ostracised by the community, his mother thought this was most unreasonable, so she built the mosque and minaret to annoy her Jewish neighbours. Don’t mess with them Jewish Mamas!
