- Mosque Sidi Sahbi or Mosque of the Barber, Kairouan, Tunisia. The Mausoleum of Sidi Sahab, generally known as the Mosque of the Barber, is actually a zaouia located inside the city walls. It was built by the Muradid Hammuda Pasha Bey mausoleum, dome and court and Murad II Bey minaret and madrasa. In its present state, the monument dates from the 17th century.nThe mosque is a veneration place for Abu Zama` al-Balaui, a companion of the prophet Muhammad, who, according to a legend, had saved for himself three hairs of Muhammad`s beard, hence thae name of the mosque. The sepulchre place is accessed from a cloister-like court with richly decorated ceramics and stuccoes.
