The mosque has an entrance, but no exit, figuratively speaking.

You can check out but you can never leave.

Perhaps it would be fitting to describe the organization of frescoes in an Orthodox Church (where they are most rigorously prescribed).

At the entrance to the church, above the door, one sees Christ the teacher; this explains that the congregant enters the space where he will be taught. Christ is shown enthroned with an open book on His knee.

Over the main worship space, in the central vault there is Christ the Pantocrator reminding people of divine power and presence. On the four corners supporting the dome there are icons of the four evangelists.

Over the Eastern apse, that is, visible above the iconostasis on the alter vault there is Mary the Mother of God praying with her arms outstretched, for the salvation of the faithful.

As the believer exits, on the inner side of the main worship space, he sees Christ coming again in glory, blessing with both hands. That is to remind him of the day of Judgment.

That, of course, is what should be taught to every child in every Christian nation.
