Answer:

(A) True

Step-by-step explanation:

The scheme to depict the Heaven inside of a building can be found in early Christian representation, and later periods, but also is a feature associated with Islamic traditions. A good example that can illustrate this statement it's St. Peter's Basilica Dome in Rome (a Christian building) and the Dome of Rock in Jerusalem (an Islamic building). Both buildings use this structural scheme.
