Great spiritual.

ŞAFİİLER (ŞABAKHANE) MOSQUE; It is located on Taş Magazines Avenue, above the Sabakhane fountains and is the only mosque in Erzurum, which is a magnificent mosque. There is not much information about it. The mosque is covered with roofs and has no architectural value. It was understood from his foundation that it was built by Hacı Muhammed in the first quarter of the 18th century.

ŞAFİİLER (ŞABAKHANE) MOSQUE; It is the only mosque in Erzurum, which is located on Taş Stores Street, above Şabakhane fountains and has the characteristics of an extraordinary mosque. It is located right at the entrance of the jewelers market. It is famous for its ice-cold water flowing from the fountains under the mosque.

The historical Şafiiler Mosque, which has been lost in concrete structures, cannot find the value it deserves. Especially with the restoration of Erzurum Castle, which is right next to it, the mosque, which is waiting for a helping hand, has lost its originality with the renovations made. Şafiiler Mosque, which does not have an inscription on it and it is understood from its foundation charter that it was built by Hacı Muhammed Ağa in the 18th century, has lost its original as a result of the work done on it. The mosque minaret, which has the most interesting minaret among Erzurum minarets, resembles balconies that can be protruded from outside. The historical mosque, located right at the foot of the Erzurum castle, is expected to be restored in accordance with its original form. The fact that the windows of the mosque are made of PVC is among the remarkable details. While the inscriptions on the famous Şabakhane Fountains, on which the mosque was built, draw attention, these inscriptions are expected to be deleted. It is hoped that the Şafiiler Mosque, which attracts the attention of many people due to its location, will be opened and renovated in accordance with its originality. It is thought that if the mosque is restored, it will add color to the Stone Stores.
