It is one of the greatest irrigation works, and the main stone in the modern irrigation system in Egypt. Its length is about 8,400 miles, its water area is 100,000 square miles, and it took about 20 years to build.

The lands of Lower Egypt until the early nineteenth century were irrigated through the hayad path of Upper Egypt, so it was only grown in the winter, and the summer was only grown on the shores of the Nile or the few canals derived from it, and Muhammad Ali gradually changed this system, as he took in the canals. And cleansing them and building bridges on the shore of the Nile to ensure the provision of irrigation water for most of the year, and canals irrigate the lands in times of floods, as effortlessly as possible, especially after the construction of arches on them.

Muhammad Ali crowned the irrigation works that I set up by constructing the charitable aqueducts, and its name speaks volumes for the definition, as it is the basis of the summer irrigation system in Lower Egypt, and although it was his last work in irrigation, it is the greatest benefit and its honor
