The citadel of Saladin - and indeed, the Cairo skyline - is dominated by the Alabaster Mosque, or Mosque of Mohammed Ali. Modelled along classic Turkish lines, it took 18 years to build (1830 - 1848) although later the domes had to be rebuilt. It was commissioned by Mohammad Ali, ruler of Egypt from 1805 - 1849, who lies in the marble tomb on the right as you enter.

Room of Psychiatrist Dr Muhazim Muhammed, at the Mental Health and Psychosocial Support department of the Hospital in Sinjar. The MHPSS department was set up by Cordaid at the start of 2019.
All patients of the MHPSS department are ISIS survivors, who have recently returned to Sinjar. Some of them have been kidnapped for months by ISIS, all of them have been displaced for years.
“This department is the only facility that provides mental health care and psychosocial support at hospital level in the whole of Sinjar”, explains Hala Saba Jameel, who coordinates Cordaid’s health program in Iraq. “We trained social workers and mobile teams, especially in recognizing and addressing gender based violence. We pay their salaries, provided the equipment and pay an incentive for the psychiatrist. Mobile staff goes out to the surrounding villages every day, talk to the families, try to find those who are most urgently in need of support and inform them of our psychosocial and mental health care activities. We make sure there’s always someone there for them, to listen to them and provide professional care. The department has been up and running for 5 months.”
-------------------
After the military defeat of ISIS in Northern Iraq, in 2017, traumas of the terror years came to the surface on a scale that far overstretched the existing health system. There were next to no mental health care or psychosocial support services for the many hundreds of thousands of traumatized displaced persons as well as the affected hosting communities.
All communities in Northern Iraq were indiscriminately traumatized by ISIS rule and the ensuing war, whether Arab, Kurdish, Christian or other groups. Nevertheless, the extent of targeted and organized brutalities against the Yazidi’s – especially against women and children – is unprecedented. Yazidi history knows many persecutions. This one stands out. It is reckoned that of the 550.000 Yazidi’s in Northern Iraq, 100.000 have fled abroad and 350.000 live a life in limbo in IDP camps. In the Yazidi capital of Sinjar alone, more than 70 mass graves have been unearthed so far.
In 2017 Cordaid started providing primary health care services to displaced Yezidi and Christian host communities in the village of Seje (in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq). By that time IDPs in and around Seje already far outnumbered the host population. As of yet, most Yezidi families still fear to go back home. The health center – which also has a mobile clinic – is the only medical facility in a 10 km radius.
Gradually, Cordaid started adding mental health services and psychosocial support (MHPSS) to the primary health care services in Seje. By then, the need to address mental health issues such as depression and anxiety – especially among Yezidi women and children many of whom had been kidnapped, enslaved and abused by ISIS for months if not years – had become acute. Cordaid trained and recruited new staff to provide psychosocial support as well as psychiatric medical services and medication. The District of Health psychiatrist that comes weekly is one of only 24 in the whole of Iraq. The Cordaid social worker is a young Yezidi woman who can closely relate to the survivors she supports.
Since the start of 2019 and parallel to our work in Seje, Cordaid finances and staffs a MHPSS department in the Clinic of Sinjar (Nineva province), right in the heart of former ISIS territory. It is one of the worst affected war zones. As displaced Yezidi families slowly begin to return to Sinjar, the need to provide psychosocial and psychiatric care is increasingly urgent. As prove the long waiting lines of patients as well as the overburdened psychosocial support and mobile teams.
In the town of Ba’ashiqa – known for its mixed Yazidi, Christian and Muslim population, also located in Nineva province, Cordaid has rehabilitated 4 health facilities that were previously plundered and dismantled by ISIS. Here as well staff basic health care services, as well as mental health and psychosocial support to ISIS survivors who have returned to their place of origin.
Lastly, in Tal Afar, another town on the former east-west ISIS axis toward Syria, mostly populated by Arab Turkmen, Cordaid is starting to provide MHPSS services as well as health care services for people with a disability. After years of warfare the need for these services has risen acutely.
By providing different types of care in different locations in and around former ISIS territory, Cordaid is strengthening a fragile health system in one of the most brutalized regions of the Middle East. In the longer run, by doing this and expanding our efforts, we aim to contribute to the social fabric and the feeling of trust, that is needed to return to a beginning of normalcy.

El Patio de la Acequia (48,70 metros por 12,80) es la parte más importante del Generalife, si bien, su aspecto ha cambiado desde los tiempos árabes, tanto en sus construcciones como en los ajardinamientos. Presenta un canal que divide el patio longitudinalmente, que conduce las aguas de la acequia de la Alhambra, y que está rodeado de un conjunto de pequeños surtidores, y que termina en sus extremos en dos tazas de piedra. El resto del patio está ocupado por distintas especies vegetales que han ido variando según los gustos de la época. En la actualidad encontramos setos de arrayán, naranjos, cipreses y rosales.
El otro lado del patio lo forma un grueso muro con dieciocho arcos ojivados, abiertos hacia 1670, fecha en la que se realizó una reforma que transformó la dependencia en capilla cristiana, manteniendo oculta su ornamentación y tapiados sus huecos hasta 1922. En la actualidad, estos arcos dan paso a una galería que mira a los jardines bajos. A través del arco central se accede a un mirador con tres arquillos a cada lado, decorados al igual que el resto de la sala. Un pequeño arco en el extremo derecho lleva a una escalera que conduce con los subterráneos y los jardines bajos. En el muro del patio que se encuentra enfrente, se abre otro arco similar que conduce a los jardines altos.
El patio se encuentra cerrado al norte y al sur por dos pabellones, siendo el pabellón sur el inmediato a la entrada principal del patio. Era el más importante, pero ahora su fachada está deshecha y sólo conserva, en mal estado, cinco arcos sobre pilares de ladrillo y dos columnas con capiteles cúbicos descuidadamente labrados. El piso alto de este pabellón está compuesto por una sala con alcobas en los extremos y un mirador que da al Patio de la Acequia, que fue terraza hasta 1926

The Palacio de Generalife (Arabic: Jannat al-'Arif - Architect's Garden) was the summer palace and country estate of the Nasrid sultans of Granada.
The palace and gardens were built during the reign of Muhammad III (1302-1309) and redecorated shortly after by Abu I-Walid Isma'il (1313-1324)
The complex consists of the Patio de la Acequia (Court of the Water Channel or Water-Garden Courtyard), which has a long pool framed by flowerbeds, fountains, colonnades and pavilions, and the Jardín de la Sultana (Sultana's Garden or Courtyard of the Cypress). The former is thought to best preserve the style of the medieval garden in Al-Andalus. Originally the palace was linked to the Alhambra by a covered walkway across the ravine that now divides them. The Generalife is one of the oldest surviving Moorish gardens.
The present-day gardens were started in 1931 and completed by Francisco Prieto Moreno in 1951. The walkways are paved in traditional Granadian style with a mosaic of pebbles: white ones from the River Darro and black ones from the River Genil
In the Sunni sect of the Islamic religion, it is strictly forbidden to represent the prophet Muhammed in a visual form. In some cases, the act can be punishable by death. This fact was learned the hard way by the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten in 2006. After publishing twelve editorial cartoons, several of which depicted the prophet Muhammed, controversy surrounding the cartoons escalated into protests that lead to more than 100 deaths altogether, the destruction of Danish Embassies in Syria, Lebanon and Iran and resulted in death threats being issued to all of the cartoonists and publishers involved. This work attempts to draw focus to Jyllands-Posten tragedy and controversy. An obvious sign warns sensitive viewers and acts as tongue-in-cheek censorship to hide the visual depiction of Muhammed. When the coversheet is lifted, it reveals a portrait of Internet phenomenon Rick Astley singing his now ubiquitous song, “Never Gonna Give You Up.”
Fatumah Muhammed Abdi, 40, sits with a collection of nieces, nephews and an orphan child at the reception center at the Hagadera refugee camp in Dadaab Kenya, August 25, 2011. She fled the famine in Somalia.
"When we had nothing else to live for there, we decided to come all the way from Somalia to Kenya." She cares for the children of her sister and her brother, and the orphan daughter of another woman from their village. They've been dealing with drought for three years. They left the family farm and moved to a nearby town for work, washing clothes and cleaning homes of wealthier residents." The drought is so bad now that there is no economy in the town, and even those people are suffering. Now we have all fled from Somalia for assistance. I came here for daily life and security."
She and the children traveled six days to the border, then were able to arrange transport to Dadaab. "I'm not so worried for the children, now that I'm here. I feel like I'm at home in my own country and there's no stress. I'm especially happy for them, a chance to grow up and have an education and have them a better future. I'm very happy with their life. They need to be taken care of. Older children can take care of themselves, but these ones stressed me."

Prohpet Muhammed peace be upon him immigrated to Medina where he spent the last ten years of his life.
The Citadel is sometimes referred to as Mohamed Ali Citadel, because it contains the Mosque of Mohamed Ali (or Muhammad Ali Pasha), which was built between 1828 and 1848, perched on the summit of the citadel. This Ottoman mosque was built in memory of Tusun Pasha, Muhammad Ali's oldest son, who died in 1816. However, it also represents Muhammad Ali's efforts to erase symbols of the Mamluk dynasty that he replaced. When Ottoman ruler Muhammad Ali Pasha took control from the Mamluks in 1805 he altered many of the additions to the Citadel that reflected Cairo's previous leaders. One obvious change that Muhammad Ali enacted pertained to the uses of the Citadel's northern and southern enclosures. During the Mamluk period the southern enclosure was the residential area, but Muhammad Ali claimed the northern enclosure as the royal residence when he took power. He then opened the southern enclosure to the public and effectively established his position as the new leader.
The mosque is the other feature of the Citadel that reflects the reign of Muhammad Ali. This feature, with its large dome and overtly Ottoman influenced architecture, looms over the Citadel to this day. Recently destroyed Mamluk palaces within the Citadel provided space for the formidable mosque, which was the largest structure to be established in the early 1800s. Placing the mosque where the Mamluks had once reigned was an obvious effort to erase the memory of the older rulers and establish the importance of the new leader. The mosque also replaced the mosque of al-Nasir as the official state mosque.

Tiruchirappalli (tiruccirāppaḷḷi), also called Tiruchi or Trichy, is a city in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu and the administrative headquarters of Tiruchirappalli District. It is the fourth largest municipal corporation and the fourth largest urban agglomeration in the state. Located 322 kilometres south of Chennai and 379 kilometres north of Kanyakumari, Tiruchirappalli sits almost at the geographic centre of the state. The Kaveri Delta begins 16 kilometres west of the city as the Kaveri river splits into two, forming the island of Srirangam now incorporated into Tiruchirappalli City Municipal Corporation. Occupying 167.23 square kilometres, the city was home to 916,674 people as of 2011.
Tiruchirappalli's recorded history begins in the 3rd century BC, when it was under the rule of the Cholas. The city has also been ruled by the Pandyas, Pallavas, Vijayanagar Empire, Nayak Dynasty, the Carnatic state and the British. The most prominent historical monuments in Tiruchirappalli include the Rockfort, the Ranganathaswamy temple at Srirangam and the Jambukeswarar temple at Thiruvanaikaval. The archaeologically important town of Uraiyur, capital of the Early Cholas, is now a suburb of Tiruchirappalli. The city played a critical role in the Carnatic Wars (1746–1763) between the British and the French East India companies.
The city is an important educational centre in the state of Tamil Nadu, and houses nationally recognised institutions such as the Anna University, Indian Institute of Management (IIMT), Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) National Institute of Technology (NITT),and Bharathidasan Institute of Management. Industrial units such as Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), Golden Rock Railway Workshop and Ordnance Factory Tiruchirappalli (OFT) have their factories in Tiruchirappalli. The presence of a large number of energy equipment manufacturing units in and around the city has earned it the title of "Energy equipment and fabrication capital of India". Tiruchirappalli is internationally known for a brand of cheroot known as the Trichinopoly cigar, which was exported in large quantities to the United Kingdom during the 19th century.
A major road and railway hub in the state, the city is served by an international airport which operates flights to Southeast Asia and the Middle East. According to the National Urban Sanitation Policy (2010), Tiruchirappalli was one of the ten cleanest cities in India.
ETYMOLOGY
According to Hindu Mythology, the word "Tiruchirappalli" is derived from "Tiru" which is to address someone with respect, "Chirapalli" is a split of siram - head, palli - to sleep. It basically refers to Sriranganathar God who rests with his head at a little elevated position in Srirangam, Tiruchirappalli. Telugu scholar C. P. Brown has proposed that Tiruchirappalli might be a derivative of the word Chiruta-palli meaning "little town". Orientalists Henry Yule and Arthur Coke Burnell have speculated that the name may derive from a rock inscription carved in the 16th century in which Tiruchirappalli is written as Tiru-ssila-palli, meaning "holy-rock-town" in Tamil. Other scholars have suggested that the name Tiruchirappalli is a rewording of Tiru-chinna-palli, meaning "holy little town". The Madras Glossary gives the root as Tiruććināppalli or the "holy (tiru) village (palli) of the shina (Cissampelos pareira) plant".
Historically, Tiruchirappalli was commonly referred to in English as "Trichinopoly"; the shortened forms "Trichy" or "Tiruchi" are frequently used in common parlance.
HISTORY
EARLY & MEDIEVAL HISTORY
Tiruchirappalli is one of the oldest inhabited cities in Tamil Nadu; its earliest settlements date back to the second millennium BC. Uraiyur, the capital of the Early Cholas for 600 years from the 3rd century BC onwards, is a suburb of present-day Tiruchirappalli. The city is referred to as Orthoura by the historian Ptolemy in his 2nd-century work Geography. The world's oldest surviving dam, the Kallanai (Lower Anaicut) about 18 kilometres from Uraiyur, was built across the Kaveri River by Karikala Chola in the 2nd century AD.
The medieval history of Tiruchirappalli begins with the reign of the Pallava king Mahendravarman I, who ruled over South India in the 6th century AD and constructed the rock-cut cave-temples within the Rockfort. Following the downfall of the Pallavas in the 8th century, the city was conquered by the Medieval Cholas, who ruled until the 13th century.
After the decline of the Cholas, Tiruchirappalli was conquered by the Pandyas, who ruled from 1216 until their defeat in 1311 by Malik Kafur, the commander of Allauddin Khilji. The victorious armies of the Delhi Sultanate are believed to have plundered and ravaged the region. The idol of the Hindu god Ranganatha in the temple of Srirangam vanished at about this time and was not recovered and reinstated for more than fifty years. Tiruchirappalli was ruled by the Delhi and Madurai sultanates from 1311 to 1378, but by the middle of the 14th century the Madurai Sultanate had begun to fall apart. Gradually, the Vijayanagar Empire established supremacy over the northern parts of the kingdom, and Tiruchirappalli was taken by the Vijayanagar prince Kumara Kampanna Udaiyar in 1371. The Vijayanagar Empire ruled the region from 1378 until the 1530s, and played a prominent role in reviving Hinduism by reconstructing temples and monuments destroyed by the previous Muslim rulers. Following the collapse of the Vijayanagar Empire in the early part of the 16th century, the Madurai Nayak kingdom began to assert its independence. The city flourished during the reign of Vishwanatha Nayak (c. 1529–1564), who is said to have protected the area by constructing the Teppakulam and building walls around the Srirangam temple. His successor Kumara Krishnappa Nayaka made Tiruchirappalli his capital, and it served as the capital of the Madurai Nayak kingdom from 1616 to 1634 and from 1665 to 1736.
In 1736 the last Madurai Nayak ruler, Meenakshi, committed suicide, and Tiruchirappalli was conquered by Chanda Sahib. He ruled the kingdom from 1736 to 1741, when he was captured and imprisoned by the Marathas in the siege of Tiruchirappalli (1741) led by general Raghuji Bhonsle under the orders of Chhattrapati Shahu. Chanda Sahib remained prisoner for about eight years before making his escape from the Maratha Empire. Tiruchirappalli was administered by the Maratha general Murari Rao from 1741 to 1743, when it was acquired by the Nizam of Hyderabad, who bribed Rao to hand over the city. Nizam appointed Khwaja Abdullah as the ruler and returned to Golkonda. When the Nawab of the Carnatic Muhammed Ali Khan Wallajah was dethroned by Chanda Sahib after the Battle of Ambur (1749), the former fled to Tiruchirappalli, where he set up his base. The subsequent siege of Tiruchirappalli (1751–1752) by Chanda Sahib took place during the Second Carnatic War between the British East India Company and Muhammed Ali Khan Wallajah on one side and Chanda Sahib and the French East India Company on the other. The British were victorious and Wallajah was restored to the throne. During his reign he proposed renaming the city Natharnagar after the Sufi saint Nathar Vali, who is thought to have lived there in the 12th century AD. Tiruchirappalli was invaded by Nanjaraja Wodeyar in 1753 and Hyder Ali of the Mysore kingdom in 1780, both attacks repulsed by the troops of the British East India Company. A third invasion attempt, by Tipu Sultan - son of Hyder Ali - in 1793, was also unsuccessful; he was pursued by British forces led by William Medows, who thwarted the attack.
BRITISH RULE
The Carnatic kingdom was annexed by the British in July 1801 as a consequence of the discovery of collusion between Tipu Sultan - an enemy of the British - and Umdat Ul-Umra, son of Wallajah and the Nawab at the time, during the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War. Trichinopoly was incorporated into the Madras Presidency the same year, and the district of Trichinopoly was formed, with the city of Trichinopoly (or Tiruchirappalli) as its capital.
During the Company Raj and later the British Raj, Tiruchirappalli emerged as one of the most important cities in India. According to the 1871 Indian census - the first in British India - Tiruchirappalli had a population of 76,530, making it the second largest city in the presidency after the capital of Madras. It was known throughout the British Empire for its unique variety of cheroot, known as the Trichinopoly cigar. Tiruchirappalli was the first headquarters for the newly formed South Indian Railway Company in 1874 until its relocation to Madras in the early 20th century.
LANDMARKS
Once a part of the Chola kingdom, Tiruchirappalli has a number of exquisitely sculpted temples and fortresses. Most of the temples, including the Rockfort temples, the Ranganathaswamy Temple at Srirangam, the Jambukeswarar Temple at Thiruvanaikkaval, the Samayapuram Mariamman Temple, the Erumbeeswarar Temple,Ukrakaliamman temple in Tennur and the temples in Urayur, are built in the Dravidian style of architecture; the Ranganathaswamy Temple and Jambukeswarar Temple are often counted among the best examples of this style. The rock-cut cave temples of the Rockfort, along with the gateway and the Erumbeeswarar Temple, are listed as monuments of national importance by the Archaeological Survey of India.
Considered one of the symbols of Tiruchirappalli, the Rockfort is a fortress which stands atop a 273-foot-high rock. It consists of a set of monolithic rocks accommodating many rock-cut cave temples. Originally built by the Pallavas, it was later reconstructed by the Madurai Nayaks and Vijayanagara rulers. The temple complex has three shrines, two of which are dedicated to Lord Ganesha, one at the foot and the Ucchi Pillayar Temple at the top, and the Thayumanavar Temple between them. The Thayumanavar temple, the largest of the three, houses a shrine for Pārvatī as well as the main deity. The Rockfort is visible from almost every part of the city's north. The Teppakulam at the foot of the Rockfort is surrounded by bazaars. It has a mandapa at its centre and has facilities for boat riding.
The Ranganathaswamy Temple, dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu, is located on the island of Srirangam. Often cited as the largest functioning Hindu temple in the world, it has a perimeter of 4,116 metres and occupies 630,000 m2. Considered to be among the 108 Divya Desams (Holy shrines of Lord Vishnu), the temple is believed to house the mortal remains of the Vaishnavite saint and philosopher Ramanujacharya. Originally built by the Cholas, the temple was later renovated by the Pandyas, the Hoysalas, the Madurai Nayaks and the Vijayanagar empire between the 9th and 16th centuries AD. There are 21 gopurams (towers), of which the Rajagopuram is 72 m. According to the Limca Book of Records, it was the tallest temple tower in the world until 1999.
The Jambukeswarar Temple at Thiruvanaikkaval and the Erumbeeswarar Temple at Thiruverumbur were built in the rule of the Medieval Cholas. The Jambukeswarar Temple is one of the Pancha Bhoota Stalams dedicated to Lord Shiva; it is the fifth largest temple complex in Tamil Nadu. The city's main mosque is the Nadir Shah Mosque or Nathar Shah mosque, which encloses the tomb of the 10th century Muslim saint Nadir Shah. The Christ Church constructed by the German Protestant missionary Christian Friedrich Schwarz in 1766 and the Our Lady of Lourdes Church are noted examples of Gothic Revival architecture in the city.
The Chokkanatha Nayak Palace, which houses the Rani Mangammal Mahal, was built by the Madurai Nayaks in the 17th century; it has now been converted into a museum. The Nawab's palace, the Upper Anaicut constructed by Sir Arthur Cotton, and the world's oldest functional dam, the Grand Anaicut, are some of the other important structures in Tiruchirappalli.
