This small domed shrine beside Sayyida Ruqayya's honours Atika bint Zayd, a woman of Quraysh who married Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr, governor of Egypt, and lived on in Egypt after him. Mazarat Misr notes that she is often mistaken for Atika, the aunt of the Prophet ﷺ. The shrine is one of the Fatimid-era domes of al-Khalifa Street and also holds the grave of al-Ja'fari, a descendant of Ja'far ibn Abi Talib. It lies a few steps from the shrines of Sayyida Ruqayya and Sayyida Sakina and the tomb of Shajar al-Durr.
