The Abu Hanifa Mosque, also called the Grand Imam Mosque, is a Sunni mosque and shrine in the A'dhamiyya district of northern Baghdad, Iraq. It is built around the tomb of the scholar Abu Hanifa al-Nu'man, founder of the Hanafi school of Islamic jurisprudence, and is one of the most prominent mosques in the city. The district takes its name from his epithet, "The Great Leader." Over the centuries the complex has been demolished, reconstructed, and expanded.
