Wrong Mosque

[edit]

Title claims that this is the Ibrahim Terbana, however this image is part of the same sequence as Image:Mosquee Ibrahim Terbana facade.JPG which appears to depict the same building as Image:Abu el-Abbas el-Mursi Mosque in Alexandria.jpg. and it is possible that this image too has been misnamed. If anyone can read Arabic the inscription might shed light as to which mosque this is.KTo288 (talk) 20:44, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are two parts to what is written: the top is in Turkish, and the rest is Arabic poetry. Searching on line, it seems that this mosque is that of Al-Busiri in Alexandria (جامع الإمام البوصيري).--عبد المؤمن (talk) 18:16, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@KTo288 and عبد المؤمن: this image indeed confirms it is the Busiri Mosque. I'll request a file renaming and then this case can be closed. --HyperGaruda (talk) 16:13, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
