Nayin is a city and the capital of Nayin County, Isfahan Province. The Jameh Mosque of Nayin (Masjid-e-Jameh) is the grand, congregational mosque (Jameh). It is one of the earliest remaining mosques in Iran dating back to the 9th century. Although the mosque is one of the oldest in Iran, it is still in use and is protected by Iran's Cultural Heritage Organization. The interiors however are Seljuki in brick craftsmanship, and therefore allude to the 11th century. The initial construction of Jameh Mosque dates back to the 8th century A.D, but the complex has been constructed periodically. This is one of the oldest mosques in Iran, with features including magnificent plaster working over the niche, marvelous brick work around the yard, and a basement which some say used to be a fire temple before the mosque was built here. Nayin estecapitalajudeţului Nayin din provincia Esfahan. Moschea de Vineri, marea moschee congregaţională, este una dintre cele mai vechi moschei din Iran datând din secolul IX (şi mai funcţionează şi în prezent). Interiorul a fost decorat în perioada selgiucidă de meşteri zidari, cu modele realizate din cărămizi, datând aşadar din secolul XI. Începutul construcţiei a fost în secolul opt însă edificiul de cult a fost realizat în etape succesive. Moscheea de vineri din Nayin este faimoasă pentru decoraţia de stuc din interior, modelele realizate din cărămizi de jur împrejurul curţii şi subsolul despre care se spune că a fost un templu al focului mai înainte ca moscheea să se fi construit. .
