Sayyida Zaynab is considered one of the patron saints of Cairo (and Egypt as a whole). She is the sister of Imam al-Hussayn and Imam al-Hassan; and the grand daughter of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Many people from all walks of life and social backgrounds, flock to the tomb of Sayyida Zaynab to ask God to answer their prayers. These people believe that since Sayyida Zaynab is such a blessed and noble figure, God is showering His mercies and blessings upon this place. It is with this belief that people ask of God for their needs, in the understanding that His mercies and blessings will fall upon them and their prayers will be answered.

Entrance to the mosque and tomb is free of charge and is generally open from the pre-dawn prayer until the final evening prayer (an hour or two after sunset). Upon entering the mosque, there is a desk at which one can leave their shoes for safe-keeping. When collecting your shoes, a tip of 2 (or more) Egyptian pounds is common practice.

People of other faiths (I.e. not Muslim) are allowed into the mosque and so long as a respectful dress code is observered, a visit to the tomb of Sayyida Zaynab will be permitted.

There is a car park just outside the mosque and also a police station, making this place easy to visit and very safe.

Would recommend visiting Sayyida Nafeesa (another patron saint of Cairo), who is only 10 minutes away by car. Both mosques and tombs are exquisite and worth visiting.
