Located in the Shaykh Fathi quarter, the shrine or Mashhad of al-Imam Bahir was frequently rebuilt. Its tomb bears an inscription with the date 1299/699. It was one of a number of shrines associated with the reign of Badr al-Din Lu’Lu’. When it was rebuilt in 1940, the tomb’s mihrab and portal were moved to Baghdad.
