    Description

    Molla Arab Mosque
    It was built in the first quarter of the 16th century by Mevlana Mehmed, son of Ömer, son of Hamza, known as "Molla Arap". The real name of "Molla Arap", also known as "Mehmed Molla", is Muhyiddin Mehmed. His grandfather, Hamza, belongs to a Turkish family from Khorasan. Molla Arap, who participated in the Hungarian expedition during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent (1520-1566), returned to Bursa after the expedition and lived in Bursa until his death in 1531, and after his death, he was buried in the graveyard of his mosque. The tomb surrounded by iron bars opposite the mosque is attributed to Molla Arap.

    The main worship space of Molla Arap Mosque, one of the rare mosques built with multiple domes in Bursa, has a square plan; It is covered with nine domes.

    The two surviving domed sections of the Mosque, which were damaged in the 1855 earthquake, were repaired by the governor of the time, Ahmet Vefik Pasha. It was restored by Yıldırım Municipality in 1997.
