A hike to Narsok with M.Ali and Taha, the best guides you could ask for! Also, hiking in a full-length shalwar kameez, not as difficult as you'd imagine, though a little bit tricky when it comes to the rock-climbing.
Al-Rifa‘i (Ahmad ibn ʽAli al-Rifaʽi) 1119-1183, was an Iraqi Sunni Muslim preacher, ascetic, mystic, jurist, and theologian, known for being the eponymous founder of the Rifaʽi tariqa (Sufi order) of Islam. Although this mosque is named after him, the shrine contains the burials of his grandson, 'Ali Abu Shibbak al-Rifai and another Sufi mystic, 'Abd Allah al-Ansari.
The Mosque of al-Rifa'i replaced a zawiya (shrine) of the sufi saint, al-Rifa'i. It is also the royal mausoleum of Muhammad 'Ali's family, in addition to Hosh al-Basha (the Courtyard of the Pasha), in the Southern Cemetery.

Construction Supervisor: Khalil Agha chief eunuch & director of estates for Isma'il Pasha.
Completed: work resumed in 1905 when the Khedive, Abbas II, ordered its completion. Work was supervised by architect Max Herz (Herz Miksa, Hungarian) 1856-1919, head of the Comité de Conservation des Monuments de l'Art Arabe.

Muhammad Lazoğlu Bey (d.1928), an Albanian who came to Egypt with Muhammad Ali (r.1805-1848), was his trusted katkhuda (deputy), and the Minister of Finance, Defense and the Governor of Egypt (r.1808-1823). He is reported to have been the mastermind of the bloody massacre in Mohammed 'Ali Citadel (1811) to eliminate the Mamluks.
Artist: Henri Alfred Marie Jacquemart 1824-1896, a noted French sculptor. Because there was no picture or drawing of Lazoghli, the sculptor relied on a look-alike that worked as a water vendor in the souk in Cairo. This piece was first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1875.
Patron: Isma'il (İsmail Paşa, Ismail the Magnificent) 1830-1895, grandson of 'Ali, Khedive (Ottoman viceroy) of Egypt & Sudan (r.1867-1879).
