The Aqsab Mosque or Al-Aqsab Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع الْأَقْصَاب, romanized: Jāmiʿ al-ʾAqṣāb, lit. 'Mosque of the Sugarcanes') or Al-Qasab Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع القصب, romanized: Jāmiʿ al-qaṣab), also known as Al-Sadat Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع السادات, romanized: Jāmiʿ al-Sādāt), is an Ayyubid-era Sunni mosque and mausoleum in Damascus, Syria. The mosque is located on Suq Sarujiyya, outside the walls of the old city, near the Bab al-Salam gate.
The mosque houses a tomb dedicated to Aqsab al-Sadat, or the seven Companions of the Prophet Mohammed, as indicated by an inscription above the mausoleum door.
