The Zawiya Thaalibia () or the Sidi Abd al-Rahman al-Tha'alibi Zawiya () is a zawiya in the Casbah of Algiers in the commune of Casbah in Algeria. The name "Thaalibia" relates to Abd al-Rahman al-Tha'alibi.

Presentation

Sidi Abderrahman established in the Casbah of Algiers this zawiya in 1460 CE, according to the Qadiriya tariqa, in order to recommend the murids and the saliks.

When he died during the year 1471 CE, corresponding to the year 875 AH, he was buried in a room inside his corner.

A mausoleum of his own was built immediately after his death to protect his grave from any damage resulting from the influx of visitors, the blessed and the supplicants.
