Kasımiye Medresesi

( Kasımiye Medrese )

The Kasımiye Medrese or Kasim Pasha Medrese is a former madrasa (Turkish: medrese) in Mardin, Turkey.

The medrese was begun sultan Al-Zahir Majd al-Din 'Isā ibn Dāwūd (or İsa Bey) of the Artuqid dynasty, rulers of an Anatolian beylik. However, he was killed in a battle against the Karakoyunlu in 1407, before the building was fully constructed.[1] The construction was resumed after the city fell to the Akkoyunlu Turkmens. Kasım, a son of Akkoyunlu sultan Mu'izz-al-Din, is credited with completing the medrese in 1445.[2][3]

In 1924, all medreses in Turkey were closed down within a general attack on religious life and a top-down attempt to secularise society.[4]
