A Sufi figure remembered as the founder/sheikh of the lodge (Salı Tekkesi) in Odunpazarı, Eskişehir, held to date from the Anatolian Seljuk period. His exact death date and identity are uncertain as no inscription survives. Only the tomb remains, containing two uninscribed cenotaphs attributed to Şeyh Şehâbeddin and his son Şeyh Muhiddin; it was repaired in 1984 and restored by the General Directorate of Foundations in 2009. (Note: this Odunpazarı tomb is distinct from the TDV-catalogued Şehâbeddin Sühreverdî complex in Konya Ereğli.)
