This stone is then taken to the castle named Busra. With the decree of Sultan Abdulhamid I, the "Kadem-i Şerif", the footprint of the Prophet (pbuh), was built by Muhammed Ziyade Efendi on 17 May 1784, in the Busra Castle in the Havran District of Damascus.

Grand Vizier Halil Hamid Pasha, who showed great respect to Muhammed Ziyade Efendi, who brought Kadem-i Şerif, had the building in Samatya, known as Kapıcıbaşı Mansion, expropriated.

During the reign of Abdulhamid, the repair of the Kadem-i Şerif Lodge came to the agenda in 1892. Thereupon, a large-scale exploration was carried out in the lodge. Kadem-i Şerif Lodge was examined item by item and any deficiencies or areas in need of repair were identified. The findings were prepared as a discovery notebook. Following the preparations, Kadem-i Şerif Lodge underwent extensive repairs and renovations. Although Kadem-i Şerif Lodge remained idle from time to time during the Republic of Turkey, it was able to survive until today by undergoing renovations from time to time with the efforts of the General Directorate of Foundations.

    Herkese merhaba. Tekke ve zaviyeler kanunun işlevsiz hale gelmesinden sonra aktif hale gelmiştir. Hoş sohbetlerin olduğu ve bir huzur kaynağı olarak insanların sohbetlere katıldığı tekke. En azından uğrayın derim. Sağlıcakla kalın.
