Abu Al Abbas Al Mursi Mosque

|

The Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi Mosque is the most historic and most beautiful mosque in Alexandria. It was built primarily in 1775 over the tomb of a Spanish scholar, Abu El Abbas El Mursi (1219-86), and stands on Mosque Square overlooking the eastern harbor. Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi was born to a wealthy family in the Andalusia region of Spain in 1219. In the wake of increasing Christian control of Spain, he and his family left for Tunisia in 1242. He later went on to Alexandria, a popular destination of many Muslim scholars at the time. Abu al-Abbas lived in Alexandria for 43 years as a scholar and teacher until his death in 1286. He was buried in a small building near the eastern harbor in Alexandria.In 1307, El Sheikh Zein El Din Ibn El Qattan, one of the richest traders of Alexandria, visited the tomb. He funded a mausoleum and dome for the tomb, along with a small mosque.
Rulers who built themselves tombs next to the saint periodically restored the mosque over the centuries. Most of the present structure dates from 1775, when the Algerian Sheikh Abu el Hassan El Maghreby built a much larger mosque on the site. It was fully renovated in 1863, and an annual festival was established to celebrate the birth of Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi.
The mosque was again beautified in 1943 under King Farouq I (r.1937-1952), who built the Midan el Masaged, or "Mosque Square." The square covers some 43,200 square meters and includes five other mosques centered around the Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi Mosque. The mosque was renovated in the Arabian style that was popular when the saint came to Alexandria in the 13th century, at a total cost of about 140,000 LE.

DR. 'AIDH ABDULLAH AL-QARNI, born in 1379H (1960M) at a place called al-Qarni, south of Saudi Arabia. Graduated from Islamic University of Imam Muhammed Ibn Su’ud, Riyad and el-Hafeez, made him a good writer and lecturer to thousands of people in many countries around the globe. He was once locked-up during the reign of Al-Saud, when he vocally voiced up his disagreement on the presence of the US army to the holy land of Saudi Arabia. La Tahzan or Don't Be Sad contains numerous tips to help you ward off depression, have a positive outlook of life, and provides new perspectives on happiness and many more topics for a person to lead a physically and mentally healthy life.
In this era, where psychosocial issues and the unstoppable lifestyle engage a human spirit in a confusing maze, it is very vital to keep the right perspectives and attitudes to lead a normal life. This is especially true not just for Muslim adults but also for Muslim teen-agers who are trying to make sense of the world around them and the Islamic values that they are trying to adhere to!
The author cites the example of certain great Islamic scholars who were not rich with the wealth of material world, yet they lived very peaceful lives. One the other hand, there were rulers in the same era who although lived in castles, but their lives were in turmoil and were filled with anxiety and in worry. The book reminds the reader that sadness enervates the soul's will to act and paralyzes the body into inactivity. Sadness prevents one from action instead of compelling one towards it.
The book Jagalah Allah, Allah Menjagamu means if you follow Allah, Allah will always be with you with His Blessings. He is the most Gracious and very most Merciful. The book explains why must we obey and love Allah swt; it describes the characteristic of successful people; it describes how to achieve our goal to become a successful Muslim, and explains the meaning of success from the Islamic perspective. It is packed and supported with the holy AlQuran and Al Hadeeth.
