A draft of the memoirs written to the mufti of Tarsus, stating that the petition of the Companions of the Cave requesting that an imam-hatip and muezzin should be appointed to the mosque, and that a few rooms should be built for the tombkeepers and visitors, was submitted to Her Majesty Pertevniyal Valide Sultan, that nothing had been done so far, and that the issue was requested to be reported in more detail by the mufti's office.
