Shaykh Ebu'l Vefa Mosque

The Shaykh Ebu'l Vefa Mosque features walls constructed from ashlar and bricks, with a central dome accompanied by two half domes and a smaller half dome.

Following its demolition in 1913, the mosque remained inactive for decades until 1994, when the Mufti's Office of Eminönü initiated its reconstruction and reopened it for worship.

The mosque stands as part of a historical complex that included educational facilities, public services, and religious structures, forming a center of Islamic learning in Istanbul.

The mosque maintains regular prayer times and welcomes visitors throughout the day, with separate entrances and dedicated spaces for men and women.

The marble construction of the mihrab, pulpit, and rostrum displays intricate geometric patterns that reflect traditional Ottoman architectural craftsmanship.
