The dome of the mosque leads the eyes and heart of the viewer to the ascendancy, which it is reminder of sublimation. The center of the dome is the symbol of unity and the lower level is the symbol of the soul. In this paper, based on Sadra 's philosophy (including of the three worlds; sense, imagination and wisdom), a visualization the mosque's dome associated with these three cosmos is presented. Materials of the dome is perceived by the sense of eye as a reminder of the physical world. The cube and sphere in the dome, which emerged from the imagination of the architect artist, is like a fantasy world and a form of congregation, which begins from the base of the dome (multiplicity) and reaches to the top of the dome (unity), it shows the congregation and stability of the wisdom world. God is the origin of the universe, if the mosque's space is like the universe, then the mosque also has the origin with that passes through the entrance and the courtyard to it, which eventually ends to the dome.
