Detail InformationEdit

The Aqsunqur Mosque is located in Cairo, Egypt and is one of several “blue mosques” in the World. It is situated in the Tabbana Quarter in Islamic Cairo, between Bab Zuweila and the Citadel of Saladin (Cairo Citadel.) The Aqsunqur Mosque also serves as a funerary complex, containing the mausoleums of its founder Shams ad-Din Aqsunqur, his sons, a number of children of the Bahri Mamluk sultan an-Nasir Muhammad and that of its principal restorer, Ibrahim Agha al-Mustahfizan.
The mosque was built in 1347 on the orders of the emir (“prince”) Shams ad-Din Aqsunqur during the Mamluk Sultanate of al-Muzaffar Hajji. Aqsunqur was the son-in-law of former sultan an-Nasir Muhammad and one of the more prominent emirs of the latter’s court. Aqsunqur’s influence in the affairs of the sultanate grew during the reign of an-Nasir’s successors following his death in 1340.
