The Al-‘Abbās Mosque or Masjid al-‘Abbās (Arabic: مسجد الامام العباس) is the mausoleum of ‘Abbās ibn ‘Alī located across from the Imām Husayn Mosque in Karbalā Iraq. ‘Abbās was the brother of Hasan and Husayn and was the flag-bearer for Husayn in the Battle of Karbalā. The distance between the shrines of ‘Abbās and Husayn are the same as the distance between the hills of Al-Safa and Al-Marwah.Environmental effects over the years have caused the Euphrates river to change direction.
