Sheikh Abdul Qadir Al-Jilani Mosque and Shrine
One of the most prominent religious and historical landmarks in Baghdad The restoration of the mosque began from the inside and outside by restoring the dome and lifting the weights from it using scientific engineering methods by the most skilled Iraqi and Turkish engineers working in our company, as well as lifting the dilapidated whitewash from the inside and restoring the whitewash and making Islamic inscriptions and restoring the Quranic verses and gilding them with 24-karat Italian gold imported from abroad by Turkish engravers. We manufactured the pulpit and mihrab from Turkish marble and made inscriptions and gilding the inscriptions and Quranic verses. We also built two main gates from bricks and jafqim and manufactured three main doors in Istanbul by the most skilled craftsmen. We also manufactured two water fountains, one of which is an exact copy of the fountain in Yildiz Palace in Istanbul, which was built by Sultan Abdul Hamid, and the second is a copy of the fountain of Medina. The history of this mosque goes back 500 years, as Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent ordered its construction and was supervised by the architect Sinan, the engineer of the Ottoman Empire at the time. It is considered one of the archaeological sites registered with the Iraqi Antiquities Authority in the Iraqi Ministry of Culture. It has now become as if it was built today due to the precision of the work, the quality of the materials, the supervision of the engineers, the management of the company, and the beneficiary donor of this project, which is the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA), affiliated with the Turkish Ministry of Culture, in cooperation with the esteemed Iraqi government. The work was completed within one year.
