| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicting a stylized minaret of Al-Azhar Mosque superimposed upon a globe motif, symbolizing the international scope of the conference. The denomination '5 ج' (5 Pounds) appears to the right of the central device. A rectangular cartouche below the globe bears the legend 'جمهورية مصر العربية' (Arab Republic of Egypt). The outer legend along the upper periphery reads 'المؤتمر العالمي الرابع للسيرة والسنة النبوية' (Fourth World Conference on the Prophet's Biography and Sunnah), while the lower field carries the institutional name 'الأزهر' flanked by the dual dating 'صفر ١٤٠٦ ه / نوفمبر ١٩٨٥ م'. The rim is decorated with a reeded inner border of alternating raised segments. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of Egypt's long-running Islamic Architecture gold series, this piece commemorates Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Medina — a site that falls outside Egyptian territory entirely. Cairo's decision to memorialize the mosque reflects the Mubarak government's deliberate cultivation of Islamic credibility during a period when the state faced sustained pressure from domestic Islamist movements following Sadat's assassination in 1981.
KM#633 carries an .875 fineness, the same standard used across the broader Egyptian gold commemorative program of the 1980s rather than the .900 fine specification more common in earlier Egyptian issues.
