  This is one of the first mosques in Egypt after Islam entered the country in 639 AD onwards, and was named after the military general who was sent to spread Islam in the great ancient country. The mosque is quite huge, and has a large square in the middle area for ablution. The mosque can get quite crowded around prayer time. The outside area is crowded most of the time, and very close to it (a 500 meter walk) is the Religion Complex that consists of many church’s, a synagogue, and a Christian graveyard. Make sure to wear proper clothing, and women are advised to bring a head scarf. Expect to spend 15-30 minutes exploring the mosque. Entrance is free (as in any other religious site).

  The first mosque built in Africa was established in 641 AD by Amr ibn al-As, the leader who brought Islam to Egypt. Initially, it was a small space for prayers, but it has been rebuilt and expanded multiple times throughout different eras.

  Very historic place, great construction, but it must be more carful than this, the carpets smell bad. The mosque isn’t well maintained

  This is another magnificent example of Egyptian Mosques. This masjid is huge and free to enter for non worshippers too. Located at the heart of Cairo under the name of a great Sahaba follower of Prophet Muhammad ASW

  I visited this beautiful mosque, rich in history and stunning architecture. A security guard was incredibly kind and took the time to explain the mosque's details, including its history, the well inside, the pillars, and the windows. He even helped me take some photos, which I really appreciated. However, the only downside was that many employees inside the mosque repeatedly asked for tips or money without offering any assistance. This was a bit uncomfortable and took away from the otherwise wonderful experience. Overall, the mosque itself is a must-visit for its historical and architectural beauty, but be prepared for requests for money from staff.
