Gen Miskit (Dhivehi: ގެން މިސްކިތް; alternatively spelled as Gemmiskiy) is one of the oldest mosque in the Maldives built c. 1300[1][2] (before 1378).[3] It is made of coral stone and was built straight after the conversion to Islam.[4] It's noted that this mosque isn't facing towards the Qibla.[3]
Gen Miskit is located in the district of Dhadimagu at the northern end of Fuvahmulah.[2] It's now a revered site for its historical significance to the island.[5] It's the first mosque that the residents of the island did their Friday prayer and Eid prayers.[6][7]
There are disputes whether Gemmiskiy is the oldest mosque in the Maldives and in Fuvahmulah, media reports and residents say that it is the oldest but in a Monograph written by H.C.P. Bell, Fuvahmulah has had four mosques prior to Gen Miskit.[2][6][7] It is really uncertain.
There has been some concern about the extinction of the mosque due to lack of maintenance by the Fuvahmulah City Council.[8]
Features
The mosque has a communal well, a rectangular ancient circular bath known as ‘Genmiskiy Veyo’ and a cemetery with enclosed shrines “ziyaarat” of revered religious figures.[5]
Gemmiskiy Shrine
A place constructed with sandstone and protected by bricks.[5] It is also said that the person who built the mosque, Addu's Meedhoo Abu Bakr Naib Kaleygefaanu, is buried at and Ah Naib Al-Hafiz Abubakr, potentially the first proselytizer of Islam in the island.[5][9][7]
Gemmiskiy Veu
Gemmiskiy Veu or Veyo is a rectangulat bath that is adjacent to the Southeastern wall of the mosque that has waters going down into the waters.[5] It shares similarities with the baths in monasteries in Pokna and Anuradhapura in Sri Lanka.[5]
Gemmiskiy Well
The well is crafted from sandstones and has unique stories about it.[5] It is said by the residents of the island that the water tastes really sweet and each corner of the well has a unique taste.[6]
