The Şeyh Süleyman Mosque in Istanbul is a small Byzantine structure built in 1124 from brick, originally part of the Eastern Orthodox Pantokrator Monastery before its conversion to a mosque. Its precise function during the Byzantine period remains unknown, but the building stands as a modest example of middle Byzantine architectural practice in Constantinople.
