CAIRO, the TOMB of the last SHAH of IRAN at AL-RIFA'I Mosque (EGYPT)
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's visit Al-Rifa'i Mosque which 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.
The mosque is the resting place of Khushyar Hanim and her son Isma'il Pasha, as well as numerous other members of Egypt's royal family, including King Farouk, Egypt's last reigning king, whose body was interred here after his death in Rome in 1965. The mosque served briefly as the resting place of Reza Shah of Iran, who died in exile in the Union of South Africa in 1944, and was returned to Iran after World War II. He was buried in Cairo following the Iranian Revolution of 1979. Here, we are going to visit the burial chamber occupied by Reza Shah's son Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who died in Cairo in July 1980.
Egypt, a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East, dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including Giza's colossal Pyramids and Great Sphinx as well as Luxor's hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs. The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks like Muhammad Ali Mosque and the Egyptian Museum, a trove of antiquities.

Lokasi Masjid
Masjid ini terletak persis disamping Masjid Sultan Hasan, dua masjid megah ini berada di satu komplek yang dikelilingi oleh pagar hitam. Dahulunya, sebelum masjid didirikan diatas lokasi saat ini, tempat itu terkenal dengan sebutan Zawiyah Ar Rifa’i ( Pojok Rifa’i ) dinisbahkan ke Syekh Ali Abi Syabbak, salah satu keturunan marga Ar Rifa’i. Dari situ, masjid ini akhirnya terkenal dengan sebutan masjid Ar Rifa’i. Sumber lain menyebutkan bahwa nama masjid ini dinisbahkan kepada Ahmad ‘Izzuddin Ash Shayyad Ar Rifa’i salah satu keturunan al Imam Ahmad Ar Rifa’i yang lahir di Irak kemudian hijrah ke Mesir dan mempersunting seorang gadis keturunan Raja Shalahuddin Al Ayyubi.
Pendiri Masjid
Masjid yang indah ini memiliki ciri bangunan Daulah Mamalik yang berkuasa di Mesir pada abad 19-20 M. Masjid Agung yang dihiasi dengan ribuan ornament ini di bangun oleh Sayyidah Khusyar Hanim, ibu Khedives Ismail untuk dijadikan sebagai masjid agung dan tempat persemayaman terakhir baginya dan keluarganya. Ternyata apa yang ia inginkan pun terjadi. Setelah wafatnya, jenazahnya di kebumikan di dalam masjid tersebut pada tahun 1885 M. Demikian pula keluarganya, baik laki maupun perempuan banyak di kubur di masjid tersebut. Setelah mendapatkan informasi dari berbagai sumber, masjid ini menjadi tempat persemayaman bagi :
– Ibu Khedives Ismail, Sayyidah Khusyar Hanim
– Khedives Ismail beserta istri dan putra-putrinya
– Sulthan Hasan Kamil
– Raja Fuad, Raja terakhir Mesir.
– Reza Shah Pahlavi, pemimpin Iran yang digulingkan oleh Imam Khumainy. Setelah digulingkan, Reza Shah Pahlavi tidak diterima oleh negara-negara Islam saat itu, kecuali Mesir. Dan Reza Pahlevi juga diterima Mesir untuk dikuburkan di kota seribu menara ini. Lantai di sekitar makan Syah Iran dipasang marmer yang sangat indah yang harganya permeter, konon, sebesar 1 Milyar Dollar Amerika.
– Anak pemimpin Iran, Muhammad Reza Pahlevi.
Sayyidah Khusyar Hanim, ibu Khedives Ismail memberikan amanah kepada seorang arsitek bangunan bernama Husain Fahmi Pasha – wakil Dewan Perwakafan tahun 1286 H/1869 M dan arsitek ternama se-Mesir ketika itu – untuk membuat desain masjid. Akan tetapi pekerjaan terhenti dengan sebab meninggalnya arsitektur masjid tersebut tahun 1303 H/1885 M. Setelah sembilan tahun berlalu, anak Sayyidah Khusyar Hanim, Ismail menyusulnya. Beliau pun di kebumikan di sebelah makam ibunya. Akhirnya pekerjaan pun terbengkalai selama seperempat abad sampai kekuasaan ada di tangan Khedive Abbas Helmi II yang memerintahkan seorang arsitek dari Austria yang bernama Max Herz, untuk menyempurnakan bangunan masjid. Pada tahun tahun 1330 H/1912 M masjid ini secara resmi dibuka dengan menunaikan shalat Jum’at untuk pertama kalinya. c. Imam Hasanuddin
Kegiatan Masjid Saat ini
Masjid Rifa’i merupakan salah satu obyek wisata yang menarik perhatian turis mancanegara. Disamping itu, shalat lima waktu dan shalat Jum’ah masih terus berlangsung di masjid ini. Biasanya, orang Mesir pengikut tariqat Rifa’iyah tiap kali masuk ke masjid, selalu berziarah ke makam Syekh Rif’ai dan membaca doa untuknya. Pada hari jum’at setelah shalat Jum’at mereka mengadakan dzikir jama’ah yang dipimpin seorang imam, gambar bisa dilihat di laman ini.

Rute Masjid
Naik bus ke jurusan Sayyedah ‘Aisyah, dari sana anda tinggal jalan kaki sekitar 20 menit karena letak masjid tidak jauh dari Sayyedah ‘Aisyah dan tiangnya terlihat sangat jelas.

Egypt is a country mainly in North Africa, with the Sinai Peninsula forming a land bridge in Western Asia. Covering an area of about 1,010,000 square kilometers (390,000 sq mi), Egypt borders the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast, the Red Sea to the east, Sudan to the south and Libya to the west.
Egypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East. The great majority of its estimated 82 million live near the banks of the Nile River, in an area of about 40,000 square kilometers (15,000 sq mi), where the only arable agricultural land is found. The large areas of the Sahara Desert are sparsely inhabited. About half of Egypt's residents live in urban areas, with the majority spread across the densely-populated centres of greater Cairo, Alexandria and other major cities in the Nile Delta.
Egypt is famous for its ancient civilization and some of the world's most famous monuments, including the Giza pyramid complex and its Great Sphinx. The southern city of Luxor contains numerous ancient artifacts, such as the Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings. Egypt is widely regarded as an important political and cultural nation of the Middle East.

Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan & El Rifai Mosque
he Sultan Hassan Mosque is considered stylistically the most compact and unified of all Cairo monuments. It is one of the masterpieces of Mamluk architecture. The building was commissioned by Sultan Hassan bin Al-Nasir Muhammad bin Qalawun in 1356 AD as a mosque and religious school for all four juristic branches of Sunni Islam. It was designed so that each of the four schools of thought - Shafi, Maliki, Hanafi and Hanbali - has its own area while sharing the mosque.
The Al-Rifa'i Mosque is located in Cairo, Egypt, in Midan al-Qal'a, adjacent to the Cairo Citadel. The building is located opposite the 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.
The Beauty of the Mosque Madrassa of Sultan Hassan in Cairo
I was excited about visiting the Mosque of Sultan Hassan, which I have seen many times from outside but never ventured within. It was a school or madrasa, but for the first time in Cairo, the madrasa had also the status of a congregational mosque for Friday sermons. There are many interesting stories about this mosque, which is considered to be Cairo's finest example of early Mamluk architecture. In fact, many guidebooks refer to it as the finest ancient mosque in Cairo and have been praised as one of the major monuments of the Islamic world. This monument is best seen in the morning when the sun lights up the mausoleum and the western iiwan.
