520 |a This article examines the establishment of churches in Jerash, Jordan, after the Islamic conquest. In this regard, Jerash served as an important city from the Roman times until the earthquake of 749 AD. Currently, Jerash has 17 known churches, which is an exceptionally large number compared to the number of churches in other cities in the region. Although Jerash has been intensively excavated, the churches and their development in the Early Islamic period have yet to be summarized. Therefore, this article explores each church before and after the Islamic conquest. This study provides a detailed understanding of the establishment of churches within the city and highlights the relationship between Muslims and Christians following the Islamic conquest. "Due to the omnipresence of churches in the sacred landscape of the Eastern Mediterranean ... Christian architecture became a sort of obsession for early Muslims. On a daily basis, Christian churches, by virtue of their magnitude and magnificence, communicated the strength of the religious system and the imperial glory of the political power which once supported it and still was used to do so in the neighboring Byzantium".
