The madrasa of Azbak al-Yusufi was built in 1495 by the amir Azbak al-Yusufi, one of the leading Circassian amirs under Sultan Qaytbay and his son al-Nasir Muhammad. It has two facades, with a drinking trough for animals, a sabil with a kuttab above it, and a minaret by the entrance. It stands in Harat Azbak beside the outer enclosure of the Ibn Tulun Mosque.
