» scrivener - "Way to water"

The Shriah
is
the law of Islam.


it was quoted in the audio piece at
http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/religi...
that the word
Shariah
means
"way to water"


and perhaps this provides some insight about the use of water and water-like elements, in Islamic architecture.
