Abdullah Nidai al-Kashghari came to Istanbul from Kashgar in East Turkestan and became one of the leading sheikhs of the Naqshbandi order. Writing Sufi poetry under the pen name "Nidai," he gathered a wide following through his learning and spiritual guidance. He carried out guidance for many years at the Kashgari Lodge named after him in Nişanca, Eyüp. He died in 1174/1760 and was buried in his tomb in the cemetery of that lodge. His tomb stands in the same complex as the grave of the lodge's founder, Yekçeşm Ahmed Murtaza Efendi, and is visited to this day.
