According to the legend, the mosque was built by Magribija Sheik who accompanied Isa-Bey Ishakovic on his arrival to Sarajevo (Isa Bey founded Sarajevo in the 15th c.; the first regent). Not much is known about the Sheik. He was a member of the Dervish Order from Maghreb. The mosque was built in the mid 16th c. and named after him.
