The Kadhimiya Mosque (Arabic: مَسْجِد ٱلْكَاظِمِيَّة), also known as the Jawadayn Shrine (Arabic: العتبة الجوادية), is the mausoleums of the seventh and ninth Shia Imams, respectively Musa al-Kadhim and his grandson Muhammad al-Jawad, located in the Kādhimiya suburb of Baghdad, in the Baghdad Governorate of Iraq. It is a holy site in Shia Islam. Also buried within the premises of the shrine are the historical scholars Shaykh Mufīd and Shaykh Naṣīr ad-Dīn aṭ-Ṭūsi. Directly adjacent to the mosque are two smaller shrines, belonging to the brothers Sayyid Raḍī (who compiled Nahjul-Balāghah), Sayyid Murtadā, and Qadi Abu Yusuf al-Ansari.
