    The answers are Letter B and C.

    Explanation:

    The Great Mosque of Isfahan is positioned at the center of the old city

    and shares walls with other buildings. Far from being an insular sacred monument, the mosque facilitated public mobility and commercial activity thus transcending its principal function as a place for prayer alone.

    Linking the four iwans at the center is a large courtyard open to the air, which provides a quiet space from the hustle and bustle of the city. Given its sprawling expanse, it is hard to locate the correct direction for prayer. The qibla iwan on the southern side of the courtyard solves this issue. It is the only one flanked by two cylindrical minarets and also serves as the entrance to one of two large domed chambers within the mosque.
