The Imam Ali Al Sharqi Mosque (Arabic: مسجد الإمام علي الشرقي) is located on the eastern bank of the Tigris River in the city of Ali Al Sharqi in the Maysan Governorate of Iraq. It is named for an 11th-century saint named Sayyid Ali al-Sharji, known locally as Ali al-Sharqi, who is buried in the mosque. The mosque was first established in the 1950s as a replacement of Sayyid Ali al-Sharji's old mausoleum.
History
Sayyid Ali al-Sharji
Sayyid Ali al-Sharji was a descendant of the fourth Rashidun caliph, Ali ibn Abi Talib, through his son Hasan ibn Ali. He is also a cousin of the famed Sunni Muslim scholar and Sufi mystic 'Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani. The exact period of time he lived in is not clear, however 'Abd al-Karim al-Nadwi writes that Sayyid Ali al-Sharji was a contemporary of the Abbasid caliph, al-Qadir and lived in the 11th century. Genealogist and scholar Ibn 'Inaba writes that he was from the Hijaz and migrated to Iraq from there in the late 10th century. He is known locally as Ali al-Sharqi, the epithet al-Sharqi meaning "eastern one" because of the presence of his grave on the east of the Tigris River.
Construction of the mosque
Originally, the mausoleum of Ali al-Sharji was a dilapidated domed structure surrounded by a large forest. The forest was later cleared for urbanisation in 1885 and then plans were made for a larger shrine complex to replace the outdated structure. In 1950, a courtyard was built around the shrine for shelter of the visitors. The mausoleum was eventually demolished and replaced with a new, large mosque over the grave of Sayyid Ali al-Sharji in 1959.
