Mausoleum of Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili

The Mausoleum of Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili, also known as the Dargah of Qutbul Akbar Imam Shadhili (Arabic: ضريح أبي الحسن الشاذلي) is an Islamic mosque and mausoleum dedicated to Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili (died 1258), the founder of the Shadhili Sufi order.

After the death of Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili, the area was renamed Sheikh Shazly due to the presence of his grave there.

[1] The mausoleum was expanded after the late 13th century to accommodate the large numbers of pilgrims visiting the tomb.

[2] In the 21st century, the Ministry of Endowments established a mosque and connected it to the entrance to the mausoleum.

[4] Outside the religious complex, there is a well, which local traditions relate that some water gargled by Al-Shadhili himself was poured into it on a day prior to his death.
