which including El Sultan Hassan Mosque is a massive Mamluk era mosque
and madrassa located near the Citadel in Cairo. Its construction began 757
AH/1356 CE with work ending three years later "without even a single day
of idleness". At the time of construction the mosque was considered
remarkable for its fantastic size and innovative architectural components.
Commissioned by an-Nasir Hasan, a sultan of a short and relatively unimpressive
profile, al-Maqrizi noted that within the mosque were several "wonders of
construction".The mosque was, for example, designed to include schools for
all four of the Sunni schools of thought: Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanafi and
Hanbali.Then you will transfer to El Rafaai Mosque named in English the Royal Mosque, is located
in Cairo, Egypt, in Midan al-Qal'a, adjacent to the Cairo Citadel. The building
is located opposite the Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan, which dates from
around 1361, and was architecturally conceived as a complement to the older
structure. This was part of a vast campaign by the 19th century rulers of Egypt
to both associate themselves with the perceived glory of earlier periods in
Egypt's Islamic history and modernize the city. The mosque was constructed next
to two large public squares and off of several European style boulevards
constructed around the same time

surviving in its original form, and is the largest mosque in Cairo in terms of
land area.The mosque was commissioned by Ahmad ibn Ţūlūn, the Turkic Abbassid
governor of Egypt from 868–884 whose rule was characterized by de facto
independence. The historian al-Maqrizi lists the mosque's construction start
date as 876 AD, and the mosque's original inscription slab identifies the date
of completion as 265 AH, or 879 AD.The mosque was constructed on a small hill
called Gebel Yashkur, "The Hill of Thanksgiving." One local legend
says that it is here that Noah's Ark came to rest after the Deluge, instead of
at Mount Ararat.Then you will transfer to Alazhar Mosque is a mosque in
Islamic Cairo in Egypt. Al-Mu'izz li-Din Allah of the Fatimid Caliphate
commissioned its construction for the newly established capital city in 970. Its
name is usually thought to allude to the Islamic prophet Muhammad's daughter
Fatimah, a revered figure in Islam who was given the title az-Zahrā′ ("the
shining or resplendent one"). It was the first mosque established in
Cairo, a city that has since gained the nickname "the City of a Thousand
Minarets.
