Mosul, which became an Ottoman city in the 16th century, is an important center where the state’s conception of waqf and the social solidarity and social assistance emerging from it materialised. The area surrounding what is believed to be the tomb of Al-Nabi Jirjis, an important figure both for Christians and Muslims in the city, had turned from a Chaldean church into a social complex throughout time, and served within the framework of the Ottoman waqf system. It is evident that the Al-Nabi Jirjis Social Compex, which left important marks on the social life of the city of Mosul in terms of economic, social, religious and cultural aspects, had also contributed significantly in the formation of the silhouette of the city.
16. yüzyılda bir Osmanlı şehrine dönüşen Musul, devletin vakıf anlayışının ve bu anlayışın ortaya çıkardığı dayanışma ve yardımlaşmanın tezahür ettiği önemli bir merkezdir. Şehirde hem Hristiyanlar hem de Müslümanlar için önemli bir figür olan Cercis Nebi’ye ait olduğuna inanılan türbenin etrafının bir Keldani kilisesinden zaman içerisinde külliyeye dönüşerek vakıf sistemi çerçevesinde hizmet ettiği bilinmektedir. Musul şehrinin toplumsal yaşamında ekonomik, sosyal, dini ve kültürel anlamda önemli izler bırakan Cercis Nebi Külliyesi’nin, kentin siluetinin oluşumunda da önemli katkıları olduğu aşikârdır.
