A 17th-century figure who served for many years as a Janissary Agha and, after retirement, settled in the Soğukkuyu neighborhood of Tekirdağ, where he founded a Sa'diyye order lodge and soup kitchen, spending his wealth on charity. Evliya Çelebi praised him in his Seyahatnâme as a 'commander who devoted his means sincerely to good works.' The lodge was demolished after the 1925 closure of tekkes, but his tomb was preserved through the efforts of historian Mehmet Serez. (Sources: Trakya Gazetesi; Tekirdağ Bakış 'most-visited tombs of Thrace')
