Sütçü İmam Türbesi - Abarabaşı Cd. No:7

May Allah be pleased with them and give our people the faith and consciousness in them.

Savior leader of the city of Marash, one of the most important heroes of the national struggle, which is the main basis for the war of liberation from the pioneers of the national resistance movement, but unfortunately the city with the title of Hero does not know the location of his tomb.

Mashallah, may Allah treat him with his mercy, may he rest in heaven.

He lit the fire of the national struggle by shooting the first gun in the liberation of Kahramanmaraş during the years of the national struggle... Kahramanmaraş became one of the national epics as the first city with medals in the world thanks to its heroes, whose other names I can't count. May God grant heaven to him and heroes like him.

Historical mosque very nice no too many souvenirs Sade is a place that leaves people in peace in 1510 mosque at the same time the leader of the Turkish War of Independence is located in the grave of the Milkman Imam inside the plane tree to say nothing

During the occupation of Kahramanmaraş by the Frenchmen, the first bullet should be thrown into the tomb of the milkman imam who was killed and started a resistance.

Sütçü İmam, one of the first heroes of the Maraş National Struggle, was born in 1872 in Maraş's Bektutiye District. His father is Ömer Efendi from Kireçcioğulları and his mother is Emine Hanım from Tiyeklioğulları. "Imam" is his real name, which was widely used among men in Marash at that time. As the son of a middle-class family, he is known as the Sütçü Imam because he earns his living by dairy. His name has also taken place in his life, and he voluntarily served as an imam for some periods due to his good reading of the Quran in Uzunoluk Masjid, which is located near his shop. In Maraş, which was occupied by the British and then the French after the Mondros Armistice treaty, on October 31, 1919, he fired the first bullet at the enemy who meant the cover of his chimney in front of Uzunoluk Bath. 104 days after the first bullet of the Milkman Imam, the enemy was expelled from Marash. After the liberation, he was assigned to the Municipality due to his courage in the war. One of his duties was to manage the ball in the castle. Upon the Parliament's declaration of Abdülmecit as the caliph, he was seriously injured while shooting 101 plots. He could not respond to two days of intensive treatment in the hospital and passed away on November 25, 1922. The grave of Sütçü İmam, who was buried in the Bektutiye Mosque cemetery, was turned into a tomb in 1982. Many schools, streets and institutions in the city, especially the university, are kept alive in the fountain, which was built in 1936 at the place where the first bullet was fired, and in the First Lead Monument built in Cyprus Square in 1977.

A hero who started the national struggle by firing the first bullet at a french soldier trying to open the veil of our veiled mother. May you rest in the light..
