This mosque, also known as the El Jenaïz Mosque or Funeral Mosque, was built by the man of faith and science Abu Mohammed Abd'Ullah el Maghrébi and a Hafsid princess. It was enlarged twice. Its Andalusian-style minaret, beautifully decorated with arabesques, was restored towards the end of the 19th century by the architect Ahmed Chérif. It strongly resembles that of the El Kasbah Mosque. The mihrab, which is very special, is covered with a black and white marble frame that gives it a lot of lustre.
