The Al Khalani Mosque is a historic mosque in the Rusafa side of Baghdad, counted among the city's old landmark mosques. It contains an old shrine with a tomb whose identification is disputed. In the Shia account, drawing on al-Tusi's work on the occultation, the tomb belongs to Sheikh Muhammad ibn Uthman al-Amri al-Khalani, whose deputyship was affirmed by the Imams. In the Sunni account, it is the tomb of Imam al-Khalani, known by the kunya Abu Jafar and formerly called Ghulam al-Khall. The mosque stands opposite al-Khilani Square, near the Suq al-Sinak. The Sheikh Abd al-Qadir al-Gilani Mosque and the Aydarusi Mosque are also close by.
