This is a list of the Friday mosques for which the Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan claimed responsibility in his autobiographies.
Mimar Sinan was appointed to the post of chief Ottoman architect by the grand vizier Ayas Mehmed Pasha in 1539.
[2] In reality he led a team of royal architects and the buildings would have been collective works.
After this date, during the rule of Murad III, there were no major construction projects and as an old man he would have entrusted the work to other architects.
It is based on the lists appended to two of Sinan's autobiographies: Gift of the Architects (Tuḥfetü’l-miʿmārīn) and Biographical Memoir of Buildings (Teẕkiretü’l-ebniye).
