Sofu Hadım Ali Pasha
Hadım Ali Pasha was an Ottoman statesman who served as the Ottoman governor of Diyarbekir Eyalet, Bosnia Eyalet, and Egypt Eyalet.
In 1560, Ali Pasha blocked the reappointment of Seydi Ali Reis to the rank of admiral after his long journey back from Aceh, which was being pushed by Rüstem Pasha. Instead, Sefer Reis was promoted to the supreme command of the Ottoman Empire's entire Indian Ocean fleet.
Ali Pasha died in September 1560 while still in office as the governor of Egypt. He was buried in the Cairo Necropolis in Cairo. After his death, Ali Pasha's vakıf had Ali Pasha's Mosque built in Sarajevo in the classical Istanbul architectural style.
