The Mosque of Sultan al-Ashraf Qaytbay is seen as one of the most beautiful features of late Egyptian Mamluk architecture. The architectural design of the mosque is exceptional due to its fine ranges and wonderful decoration. In this paper, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) model was incorporated with wind tunnel experiments to investigate the properties of airflow within the Sultan al-Ashraf Mosque Qaytbay due to the natural ventilation caused by window openings. Wind tunnel experiments were utilized to supply the ANN model with the required data essential for the model training and establishment. The outcomes from the ANN model were validated using the results from the wind tunnel experiments. The comparison confirms the veracity of the ANN model results. Present results assured that it is very important to consider the aerodynamics and the bases of the natural ventilation when carrying out the restoration process by specialists to maintain the same performance of the original construction. ANN enables to easy predict the flow field when operating conditions are changed much easier and faster than the traditional computational and experimental methods.

The Wapauwe ancient mosque in Maluku is historically and culturally significant, symbolizing the enduring bond between religion and the local community. This qualitative archaeological study examines the mosque's architectural aspects to explore this connection. The mosque is considered a result of careful thought and reflects origin-related factors and human behavior through its architectural elements. The Wapauwe Mosque shares similarities with ancient mosques found throughout the archipelago. Its three-tiered roof typology, supported by four pillars and a distinctive peak, represents the three stages of Islamic development, showcasing the integration of Islamic principles with local culture. The two-tiered roof of the Wapauwe Kaitetu mosque signifies an ongoing dialogue between religious scholars and the indigenous people, leading to architectural adaptations. Furthermore, the mosque's design elements carry symbolic meanings. The peak symbolizes monotheism and male fertility, while the pineapple-shaped pegs embody the fusion of animal carvings and flora. The rectangular plan signifies the influence of customs and religion, and the mimbar type reinforces the growth and development of religious traditions. Architecturally, the Wapauwe mosque features 12 supporting pillars, corresponding to the 12 fundamental values of Islamic teachings—comprising the five pillars of Islam, six pillars of faith, and Ihsan. This alignment also mirrors the concept of deliberative custom, which includes 12 institutional structures. These structures coexist and interact with the religious hierarchy and its apparatus, demonstrating a balanced and inclusive relationship between religion and locality within the governance of Maluku. Ultimately, the typology of the Wapauwe mosque emphasizes the deep connection between Islam and local culture. It serves as a testament to the culturally inclusive religious character of the community. This cultural Islamic society respects differences and embraces diversity as an integral aspect of religious teachings
