The al-Jalili family (Arabic: الجليلي), are an Iraqi family who served as effective rulers of the city of Mosul, Iraq, between 1726 until 1834, during its integration as a district of the Ottoman Empire.[1] They are credited with investing considerable capital in religious institutions[2] and charitable activities,[3] as well as benefiting systems of patronage and considerable growth in cultural activities within the capital during this period.[4]
