Built in 849 by a student of the jurist Sahnoun, the cadi Ali Ben Salem Jebenyani. It was enlarged several times, the last one in 1758 by the Turks. The prayer room is square. The courtyard is framed by 4 galleries. The minaret and the big door of access to the prayer room remind those of the mosque of Kairouan. It is on the cool mats of the prayer room that were once taken the major decisions that marked the history of the city. At independence, the renovation work gave back to the building its style and its simplicity.

cette mosquée fait partis de mon histoire familiale puisque c'est a l'occasion d'une rénovation que mon arrière grand père a décider de s'installer a sfax
c'est une mosquée sobre a l'extérieure mais qui présente beaucoup d’intérêt architectural a l’intérieur a visiter absolument si vous passer par sfax.
