Photo report of Raas Al-Hussein mosque in Cairo
By: Ali Hossein
CAIRO, Egypt: Raas Al-Hussein Mosque was built in 1154 near the
Khan El-Khalili bazaar. According to some Egyptian narrations Imam
Hussein(as)’s head was buried here. The mosque, considered to be one
of the holiest Islamic sites in Cairo, was built on the cemetery of
the Fatimid caliphs, a fact that was later discovered during the
excavation. The Mosque houses some very sacred items like the oldest
believed complete manuscript of the Quran.
A hadith in which the Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) says: "Husain is from me
and I am from Husain.'' is also written on a marble slab in the
mosque.
Here is the photographic report of Raas Al-Hussein mosque in Cairo.

get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
