Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Üsküdar, Turkey.

The Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi Mosque exhibits Ottoman architectural elements with a central dome, minarets, and detailed interior tilework featuring Quranic inscriptions.

The mosque, constructed in 1580, serves as the final resting place of Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi, a 16th-century Islamic scholar who founded the Jelveti order of Sufis.

The mosque functions as a center for Islamic education, offering lectures about Sufi teachings while maintaining its role as an active place of worship.

Located near multiple bus stops and ferry terminals in Üsküdar, the mosque opens daily for prayers and welcomes visitors outside prayer times.

Ottoman Navy sailors traditionally visited the tomb of Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi before sea voyages, believing his blessings would protect them during their journeys.
