Hirka-i Serif Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Fatih, Turkey.
The Hirka-i Serif Mosque features an octagonal design with three gates on each side and contains a specific section for storing religious artifacts.
Sultan Abdulmejid I ordered the construction of this mosque between 1847 and 1851, following the removal of surrounding structures in the area.
The mosque maintains the sacred cloak of Prophet Muhammad, presented to Uwais al-Qarani from Yemen during the seventh century.
The mosque includes designated areas for gender-separated prayers, cultural events, and educational programs about Islamic traditions and teachings.
The architectural design draws inspiration from Jerusalem's Dome of the Rock, incorporating similar octagonal elements into its structure.
