Abdullah-ı İlahî (Molla İlahî, Abdullah Simavî) was the pioneering Sufi who spread the Naqshbandi order in Anatolia and Rumelia. Born in Simav (Kütahya), he studied at the Zeyrek Medrese in Istanbul, then went to Samarkand and became a disciple of Ubaydullah Ahrar, residing for a time near Bahaüddin Naqshband's tomb in Bukhara. At the invitation of Evrenoszade Ahmed Bey he settled in Yenice-i Vardar and died in his lodge in 896/1491. He was buried behind the Ahmed Bey Mosque, and his grave grew into the 'Great Lodge'. NOTE: TDV records that art historians Semavi Eyice and Ekrem Hakkı Ayverdi found no surviving trace of the tomb; as the structure no longer survives and no cross-verified numeric coordinate exists, no pin is given.
