Question
One ruler who mysteriously disappeared from this city’s Mokattam hills left behind only a donkey and bloody garments, and was known as the “mad caliph.” After his exile from Andalusia, Maimonides wrote the Mishneh Torah in this city’s suburb of Fustat, a previous capital which was absorbed by this city. An epithet of Fatima, which calls her “the luminous,” names this city’s Al-Azhar university. After the fall of Baghdad, the Abbasid Caliphate was restored in this city under the Mamluk Sultanate. The Ayyubid dynasty was founded in this city by Saladin after the fall of the Fatimid Caliphate. For 10 points, name this capital city of modern Egypt. ■END■
