Sidi Ali Ben Ziyad Mosque (Arabic: مسجد سيدي علي بن زياد), was a Tunisian mosque located in the west of the medina of Tunis. It does not exist anymore.[1]
The mosque was located in Sidi Ali Ben Ziyad Street, behind Dar El Bey.
It got its name from a saint, Sidi Ali ibn Ziyad, a jurisconsult from Ifriqiya and a Malikite Imam.
According to the historian Mohamed Belkhodja, Sidi Ali ibn Ziyad died in 799 and was buried in this mosque, which means it existed in the 9th century.
