Its story
Şeyh el-Mücahid, whose real name was İbrahim, was the son of Şeyh Hamza el-Kebir, one of the leading saints of Tillo. Şeyh İbrahim el-Mücahid, whose date of birth is unknown, was born in Tillo, died here in 1262 before his father, and was buried in the tomb built in his name. Erzurumlu İbrahim Hakkı mentions his miracles in his works; it is also said that he had a divan (collection of poems). In the district there are families descended from him and a neighborhood bearing his name. As the tomb is right beside the one where İsmail Fakirullah and İbrahim Hakkı rest, the tombs reflecting Tillo's madrasa and Sufi tradition can be seen on the same walk.
