[1] A thorough reconstruction was undergoing for several years with the assistance and cooperation of the Turkish Republic, and finally it was fully put into service and opened to public in November 2016.

The mosque was commissioned by Haydar Bey, then beylerbey of Rumelia Eyalet, the largest Ottoman administrative territory, with Manastir as a regional centre.

In the description of Evliya Çelebi's travels through the Balkans in the 17th century, this mosque was considered as one of the most beautifully decorated.

We also know that all the mosques of the town were restored before the visit of the Mehmed V in 1910, a fact confirmed by certain elements of the interior decoration painted at that time.

In 2014, the mosque was completely renovated with funds from the Directorate General of Foundations (Turkey), which oversees the management of Islamic inalienable endowments (vakıf) dating back to the Ottoman era.
