It says, "The oldest construction date of this building is 586 h. (1208 AD) and it was repaired by Haci Ali Baba Moorish for charity of Tekke in 1285 r. (1869)". When the architectural features of the inscription and the building, which mentions the restoration at the end of the 19th century and understood to have been added recently, are examined, it is thought to have been built during the Artukids Period. It is known that in the past there was a mosque and a lodge in the south of the madrasa. In the foundation records, it is stated that the mosque, which is demolished today, was built by İbrahim Bey, the nephew of Akkoyunlu Kasım Sultan, and that the madrasa building, which has survived to the present day, was built by the wife of İbrahim Bey, Şah Sultan Hatun.
