A Khorasan dervish whose complex of tomb, lodge and mosque stands in Şeyh Nusrettin (Tekke) village near Zile. His tombstone reads 'Sheikh Nasir al-Din'; popular usage turned it into Nusret/Nusreddin. Endowment records of his lodge dated 754 AH (1353), 770 AH (1368) and 792 AH (1389) survive and the square-planned domed tomb is dated to the 14th century. Evliya Çelebi's Seyahatname counts him among the deputies of Khwaja Ahmad Yasawi.
