    why it is important to visit

    1-It is the oldest intact functioning Islamic monument in Cairo. It is considered the 3rd mosque which was constructed for the whole community or the congregation joined together for the Friday noon prayer.

    2- It is also rare preserved example of the art and the architecture of the classical period of Islam.

    It is one of the biggest mosques in Egypt. The mosque together with the ziyada occupies an area of 6.5 acres.

    The Minaret:It stands on the North side of the Ziyada, where a door leads to it is an unusual stone structure with an outer staircase, and a Mameluk top of the type named Mabkhara. This minaret caused controversy among the Cairo's Architectural historians. We don't have enough sources to clear this point or determine its date.
