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.
To the left of the entrance, you can find the resting places of several members of the Egyptian royal family, including last king Farouk, ousted in the 1952 revolution. The tombs are marvelously decorated with Quranic texts in graceful Arabic calligraphy. In addition, an especially beautifully decorated room with marble and precious carpets holds the tomb of the last Shah of Iran, who died here after spending his last time in exile in Cairo. This high-ceiling room has exceptionally beautiful acoustics. Moving to the mosque proper, the daylight coming in from the dome reminds you that the dome is even higher. The colourful minbar or pulpit is of extreme elegance, and made of Indian wood with layers of ebony, ivory and mother-of-pearl, while the mihrab is decorated using marble inlays and mother-of-pearl (imported from Europe). Besides, I was attracted by the many white lamps with Quranic verses hanging down from long cords from the ceiling.
