Mahmut al-Ansari is, by tradition, said to have been a companion of the Ansar lineage from Medina who came to the Hısn-ı Mansur (Adıyaman) region to spread Islam and was martyred there; while details about him are not firmly established, he is an important spiritual figure venerated by locals. His tomb stands on the high Ali Dağı (Ali Mountain) next to Elifli (İpekli) village, about 7 km east of Adıyaman center. The H.1126 (1714 CE) date on the door inscription is taken as a repair date; tradition attributes the structure to Sultan Murad IV after his Baghdad campaign.
