The Hubous (Arabic: الحُبوس al-Hubous or حَي الأَحْباس Hay al-Aḥbās), or colloquially Habous, is one of the older neighborhoods of Casablanca, Morocco.

[1] The many traditional and historic buildings also make the Hubous a popular tourist destination.

In 1916, almost a decade after the French invasion and occupation of Casablanca and four years after the official establishment of the French protectorate, General Lyautey's handpicked urban planner Henri Prost and his team decided to build, to the east of the new center, a "nouvelle ville indigène," a new development for Muslims including a palace for the sultan.

[2] A Moroccan Jewish man named Haim Ben-Dahan, a cereal trader and financier, owned the land and gifted it to the sultan.

[3][4] The Mosque of Sultan Yusuf was designed by Auguste Cadet and Edmond Brion, and the Mosque of Sultan Muhammad Bin Yusuf was designed by Cadet and built from 1934 to 1936.
