Video - Echoes of Altruism: The Legacy of Suleymaniye Mosque

A bowl of yogurt During the Ottoman Empire, it was the greatest ideal for every pasha and sultan to establish a charity institution open to everyone in his country and go to the afterlife that way. For this reason, each of them built a mosque, a complex or a hospital in the conquered places. Our ancestors established the institutions required by the culture of their time. They did not leave a place without a mosque so that no matter where a person studied, no matter what he studied, he would always be in touch with his Lord. This thought made Suleymaniye Mosque built by Suleiman the Magnificent. However, he wanted the work he commissioned to be recorded only in his notebook, and he wanted to present such a gift to his Lord. That's why he strictly warned the masters and said, "Do not accept help from anyone."
