Mesih Mehmed Pasha Mosque (Template:Lang-tr), is a mosque built by Mimar Davud Ağa in 1585. The Mosque was dedicated to one of Murad III's Grand Viziers, Mesih Mehmed Pasha. It has one dome, one minaret and three doors.

The Mosque is in Istanbul's Fatih district, in Muhtesip İskender neighborhood, on Eski Ali Paşa street. It has been written on the tomb of Mesih Mehmed Pasha, that the mosque was built by Mimar Sinan. However, Ahmet Refik states that the mosque was claimed to one of Mimar Sinan's students, Mimar Davut Ağa.[citation needed] In the same neighborhood there is Hırkai Şerif Mosque.
