Mosques always had their social dimension. The Yasar Pasha Mosque serves not only as a maktep for the study of Islam, but also as a meeting point for the elderly of this neighborhood during their five daily prayers. Friday has a special significance, because the imam of the mosque delivers a sermon and offers advice to the believers. Located between Çarshi Mosque and Great Mosque, the Yasar Pasha Mosque was built in the 16th century and underwent restoration in the 19th century initiated by the Mehmet Yasar Pasha, a Skopje governor at the time. Therefore, it is thought that the mosque was named after him. During the ‘60s, the mosque became an obstacle for the new urban plan and was partially demolished as a result, opening the way for the widening of the road in that part of the city.
