Ibrahim Pasha Baban

The Great Mosque of Sulaymaniyah, also known as the Grand Mosque (Mizgewtî Gewre) and as the Sheikh Ahmad Mosque, is a Sunni mosque located in Sulaymaniyah, in the Sulaymaniyah Governorate, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The mosque contains the tomb of Haji Kaka Ahmad, a Kurdish cleric who was known for his donations of food to the needy. Founded in 1784 CE and completed in the following year by the Baban Emir Ibrahim Pasha Baban, the mosque also contains a shrine dedicated to Mahmud Barzanji, a Kurdish leader who fought against the British occupation of Iraq. It is regarded as the first mosque in Sulaymaniyah. Attached to the mosque building is the mausoleum for the Baban family, a powerful family of Emirs who assisted the Ottoman Empire in the Safavid-Ottoman War and built the modern city of Sulaymaniyah.
