The Al-Khanqah al-Salahiyya Mosque is a mosque complex in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, lying north of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Endowed by Saladin, who gave it his name, it was originally a khanqah, a gathering place for Sufi adherents including dervishes. Today the complex includes the mosque, a school, a public sitting room, rooms for military officers, and a very small room used for Saladin's spiritual retreat.
