Kutlu mabet: Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii
Ayasofya’nın cami olma hikayesi İstanbul’un fethiyle başladı.
Fatih Sultan Mehmet şehre girdiğinde ilk olarak hayalini kurduğu Ayasofya’ya gitti. Sancağını mihraba dikti. Kubbeye doğru bir ok fırlattı. İlk ezanı bizzat kendisi okuyarak beraberindekilerle namaz kıldı.
Sultan Fatih, Ayasofya Camii Kebiri’ni kendi hayratının ilk eseri olarak vakfetti. Ömrü boyunca yaptığı katkılarla mabedi ihya etti.
Fatih Sultan Mehmet’ten kalan bu kutlu emanete diğer Osmanlı padişahları da özenle baktı.
Ayasofya’nın hat levhaları
Cami, Sultan Abdülmecid döneminde büyük bir onarımdan geçirildi. Ve bugün caminin görkemli havasını oluşturan 8 büyük levha asıldı.
Levhalarda Allah lafzı, Hazreti Muhammed, 4 halife ve Hazreti Hasan ile Hüseyin’in isimleri yazılı. Kazasker Mustafa İzzet Efendi’nin el işçiliği olan levhalar 7,5 metre çapında ve 13 metre yüksekliğinde.
Cami 1934’te müze yapıldığında levhalar Sultanahmet Camii’ne asılmaları için indirildi. Ancak Ayasofya Camii’nin en büyük kapısından bile yüksek oldukları için camiden çıkarılamadı. 1949’da ait oldukları yerlere yeniden asıldı.
Her gün binlerce kişiyi ağırlıyor
Ayasofya Camii Kebiri’ndeki en dikkat çeken detaylardan biri de kubbedeki işlemeler. İstanbul’un en büyüğü olan kubbede “Allah göklerin ve yerin nurudur” anlamına gelen Nur Suresi’nin 35. ayeti yer alıyor.
Ayasofya Camii Kebiri her gün on binlerce kişiyi ağırlıyor. Ramazanda bu sayı daha da artıyor.

Kutlu mabet, also known as the Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii, is an iconic religious structure in Istanbul, Turkey. The building was initially constructed in 537 AD as an Eastern Orthodox Christian cathedral during the Byzantine era. It was then converted into a mosque in 1453 after the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople. The mosque operated for over four centuries until 1935, when it was repurposed into a museum by the newly established Turkish Republic. However, in 2020, the building was again transformed into a mosque amid much controversy.
The Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii is a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture. The building was designed by Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles and is famous for its massive central dome that spans over 30 meters in diameter. The enormous dome is held up by four piers and forty windows, providing an ethereal atmosphere inside the building. The interior of the Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii is also adorned with stunning mosaics and frescoes that date back to the Byzantine era.
The mosque has served as a religious and cultural center for both Christians and Muslims for over a millennium. It is an important site of both Eastern Orthodox Christianity and Islam. The building has witnessed numerous historic events, including coronations, royal weddings, and state funerals. The great leader of the Ottoman empire, Suleiman the Magnificent, prayed in the mosque after his legendary military campaigns. The mosque also played a critical role during the siege of Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade.
The Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii has been a source of controversy and debate for many years. In 1935, the founder of the modern Turkish state, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, ordered that the mosque be repurposed into a museum, as part of his campaign to secularize Turkey. The museum converted the complex into a tourist attraction, attracting millions of visitors from all over the world.
However, in July of 2020, the Turkish government announced that the complex would again serve as a mosque. The decision prompted widespread opposition inside Turkey and beyond, citing concerns about preservation and access to the historic site. Despite the protests, the conversion was carried out, and the mosque reopened in July of 2020, with limited access to non-Muslim visitors.
Today, the Ayasofya-i Kebir Camii continues to attract millions of visitors each year, although it’s unclear how many people will be able to visit the mosque after its 2020 conversion. Its importance as a symbol of both Christianity and Islam cannot be overstated. The mosque is a significant part of Istanbul’s cultural heritage and a testament to the impressive longevity and resilience of the structures that make up the city’s remarkable architectural heritage.
