Not only an impressive mosque, but also the final resting place for Egyptian royalty and the last Iranian shah, ar-Rifai mosque overwhelms the visitor even before he enters.
From a distance, it is not immediately obvious that ar-Rifai mosque is so much newer than its enormous neighbour, Sultan Hassan mosque, with which it shares the same colour, style and height. Until the end of the 19th century, the space that is now occupied by the mosque was a shrine of the medieval Islamic saint Ahmad al-Rifai, who would eventually give his name to the mosque built on his shrine. The zawiya, or shrine, was a destination for pilgrims who believed it had special healing powers. Ahmad al-Rifai lived in the 12th century and was known to have exceptional healing powers. He was the founder of the Sufi Rifai order.
