The Old Pharaoh says:

This is not Al-Azhar Mosque. This is Muhammad Ali Mosque also known as the Alabaster Mosque. It is one of the three mosques within the walls of The Cairo Citadel. Al-Azhar Mosque is somewhere else. One more thing, Al-Azhar was built in 970-972 A.D. while this mosque was built in 1830-1848 A.D. So there are quite a few years to separate them, too.
Apart from that, this is a nice photo.
