İsmailağa Camii, Religious complex in Fatih, Turkey

Ismailaga Mosque consists of a central dome flanked by three smaller domes on each side with two marble mihrabs carved into the walls.

Ottoman Sheikh ul-Islam Abu Ishaq Ismail Efendi commissioned the construction of this mosque in 1723, following the exact dimensions of the Kaaba.

The mosque functions as the center for the Ismailaga religious community, continuing centuries-old traditions of Islamic education and spiritual guidance.

The mosque maintains regular prayer schedules and provides separate prayer areas for men and women, with modern ventilation systems throughout the building.

The cemetery contains the graves of the founder Abu Ishaq Ismail Efendi and his sons, including two who served as Sheikh ul-Islam.
