==Тарихы==
1926 жылы бірінші дүниежүзілік соғыс аяқталысымен as a token of gratitude, after [[World War I]], to the [[Muslim]] ''[[tirailleurs]]'' from [[French Colonial Empire|France's colonial empire]]', of whom some 100,000 died fighting against [[Germany]]. The Mosque was built following the ''[[mudéjar]]'' style, and its [[minaret]] is 33 meters high. It was inaugurated by President [[Gaston Doumergue]] on July 15, 1926. [[Ahmad al-Alawi]] (1869–1934), an Algerian [[Sufi]], founder of the modern Sufi order [[Darqawa|Darqawiyya Alawiyya]], a branch of the [[Shadhili]]yya, led the first communal prayer to inaugurate the newly built mosque in the presence of the French president. Initially sponsored by the king of Morocco, it was reassigned to Algeria in 1957 by the French Foreign Minister. Under its rector [[Si Kaddour Benghabrit]] and clerics during [[World War II]], the mosque served as a secret refuge for those persecuted by the Axis powers, providing shelter, safe passage, and fake Muslim birth certificates for Jewish children.<ref name="WP">{{cite web|title=The Holocaust's Arab Heroes |date=October 8, 2006 |author = Robert Satloff|publisher = [[The Washington Post]]|url =http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/06/AR2006100601417_pf.html|accessdate=2010-04-28}}</ref> The mosque is currently led by ''[[mufti]]'' [[Dalil Boubakeur]].
