History



The religious complex was built in Humaithara. After the death of Abu al" target="_blank">al-Hasan al" target="_blank">al-Shadhili, the area was renamed Sheikh Shazly due to the presence of his grave there. The mausoleum was expanded after the late 13th century to accommodate the large numbers of pilgrims visiting the tomb. In the 21st century, the Ministry of Endowments established a mosque and connected it to the entrance to the mausoleum. Sanitation facilities were attached to the mosque building as well. A madrasah for memorizing the Qur'an was also established, as well as a temporary housing for the Sheikh of the mosque and the madrasah's teacher.
