The Murat Pasha Mosque (Turkish: Murat Paşa Camii) is a 15th century Ottoman mosque squeezed in between two busy roads linking Aksaray and Yusufpaşa in the Fatih district of Istanbul, Turkey.

Architecture

The mosque was commissioned in 1465-66 by Hass Murad Pasha (mod. Turkish Has Murat Paşa) ^[1] and completed after his death by his brother Mesih Pasha, who was buried here.^[2]

The mosque is designed in the early Ottoman style perfected in Bursa. The main space is a 2 x 1 rectangle covered by two identical domes, each 21 m (69 ft) high and 10.5 m (34 ft) in diameter. The mihrab and minbar are on the short side of the rectangle. The main space is approached via a narthex rather like those in Byzantine churches. This is preceded by a portico.
