Sheikh Muhammad Murad al-Bukhari was born in Samarkand in 1050/1640 into a sayyid family. He is the principal figure who carried the Mujaddidi branch of the Naqshbandi order into Ottoman lands, having received it from the khalifas of Muhammad Ma'sum, son of Imam Rabbani. After long travels he settled in Istanbul and carried out guidance at his lodge in Nişanca, Eyüp. He died in 1132/1720 and was buried in his tomb in Eyüp. His tomb should not be confused with the Murad Molla Lodge in Çarşamba.
