Outside the railing on the north, close by the tomb of Fatme, is a square bench in the mosque, elevated above the ground about four feet, and fifteen paces square, called El Meyda, or the table. Here the eunuch guardians of the mosque sit; and the councils of the primates of the town, or their principal assemblies, are often held here.
The quarters lying to the north of the street El Belat, extending to the north of the mosque, as far as the gate El Djoma, are: El Hamata, Zogag el Habs, Zogag Ankyny, Zogag es' Semahedy, Haret el Meyda, Haret es' Shershoura, Zogag el Bedour, Haret el Agowat, where the eunuchs of the mosque live.
