Compared to the streets outside its doors, the historic Ben Youssef madrassa in Marrakech, Morocco, “was more quiet and relaxing,” writes Your Shot member Takashi Nakagawa. Perhaps the setting encouraged patience: Nakagawa notes that he waited a long time to capture this reflective shot.

The Quran, verse 48:28

هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَكَفَى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيدًا

It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion. And sufficient is Allah as Witness.
