The Al-Nawbakhti Shrine (Arabic: مقام النوبختي) is a Twelver Shi'ite mausoleum and mosque, located in the al-Rusafa district of the city of Baghdad, in the Baghdad Governorate of Iraq. The site is the resting place of the third Twelver Deputy Ibn Ruh al-Nawbakhti, who died in 937 CE. A dome tops the building and is also a place for ziyarat.[1] It is located between the markets of the Shorja and al-Rashid Street.[2]
