Mardin Ulu Mosque is one of the first double minaret mosques at 12th century in Anatolia. The Mosque

is located parallel to the direction of qibla with a rectangular planned scheme as similar monuments of

early Islamic period seen in the Middle East. The researchers’ arguments and local legends comprise

contradictions. In the study, it was tried to eliminate the inaccurate information by making analytical studies.
