Sumbul Efendi was the founder of the Sumbuliyye Sufi order (also spelt Sumbuli). The Sumbuliyye were a derivative of the Khalwati (also spelt Halveti and Halvetiye ) order. Sumbul Efendi's successors, the next generations were settled around 1550 in Nurullah town by Konur, Icel Province. The tomb of Sumbul Sinan Efendi is next to the Koca Mustafa Pasha Mosque in Istanbul. The site of his tomb was once his Tekke and is now a mosque. The Tekke itself was once a convent that was abandoned after the conquest of Constantinople and handed over to the Khalwatis by the Sultan to use as a Tekke. Almost all of the sheikhs who sat at the post of grand sheikh of this order are buried at the Tekke, including another noted Sheikh of this order, Merkez Efendi in Yenikapı.The tomb is frequently visited by Muslims, some of whom consider him to be a saint
