## Jawaani ke din aur palwaar

Mimar Sinan ke janam, Joseph ke naam ke niche, ek chhota town,   Ağırnas , Kayseri city ke lage, Anatolia (jaise Sultan Selim II ke hukum me bataawa gais hae) me bhais rahaa.
Uske janam chaahe  1489 aur 1491 ke biich me, nai to 1494 aur 1499 ke biiich me bhais rahaa. Uske origin ke dispute karaa jaawe hae, khaas kar ke Armenian, aur Cappadocian Greek. Ek argument jisse ii jaana jaawe hae ki uu  Armenian nai to Greek background ke rahaa, hae ek  Selim II se, jiske Ramadan 7 981 (ca. December 30, 1573) date karaa gais hae, jisme Sinan ke request ki uske palwaar ke maaf kar ke  general exile of Kayseri's Armenian community to the island of Cyprus nai karaa jaawe; ii decree, June 1930-May 1931 edition of the Istanbul Turkish journal *Türk Tarihi Encümeni Mecmuası* me pulish karaa gais rahaa. Godfrey Goodwin batais hae ki "after the Ottoman conquest of Cyprus in 1571, when Selim II decided to repopulate the island by transferring Rum (Orthodox Christian) families from the Karaman Eyalet, Sinan intervened on behalf of his family and obtained two orders from the Sultan in council exempting them from deportation." Dher scholars ke anusaar, iske matlab hae ki uske palwaar  Cappadocian Greek rahaa, kaaheki khaali Orthodox Christians (Rûms) uu ilaaka ke, Greek bhasa me baat karat rahin.

Sinan ke janam sthaan, Ağırnas, ek Greek gaon jisme koi Armenian log nai rahin, me bhais rahaa, jiske kuchh scholars bahas kare hae ki ii theory ki uu  Greek origin ke rahaa, ke support kare hae. Iske alaawa, Greeks ke ii gaon ke chhorre se pahile, ek Cappadocian Greek palwaar  Taşçıoğlu gain se (Greek: Ταστσιόγλου) ii daawa karis rahaa ki Sinan uske palwaar ke hissa rahaa.

isse kamti popular theories scholars me, hae ki Sinan ek Albanian rahaa, aur saait Jewish bhi, nai to Christian Turkish.  Encyclopædia Britannica ke anusaar, Sinan chaahe Armenian nai to Greek origin ke rahaa. Ek local sanskriti  Shiroka Lăka gaon me, batae hae ki Sinan  Bulgarian origin ke rahaa aur uske palwaar uu gaon se aaawe rahin. Turkish scholars log ii biich ii bahas kare hae ki  Sinan ke palwaar Christian Turkish rahin. 1935 me, ek council jiske Turkish Historical Society commission karis rahaa,   Sinan ke tomb ke khol ke uske khoprri ke naape rahin ii dekhae ke khaatir ki  uu Turkish "racial" heritage ke rahaa.

Sinan barraa bhais rahaa, aapan pitaji ke kaam me uske madat kar ke , aur jab uske  conscript karaa gais rahaa, tab uske lage   building work ke achchhaa jaankaari rahaa. Tiin records hae (Anonymous Text; Architectural Masterpieces; Book of Architecture)  library of Topkapı Palace me, jiske Sinan aapan dost aur   biographer Mustafa Sâi Çelebi ke khaatir likhis rahaa. Tiin manuscripts me, Sinan aapan bachpan aur  military career ke baare me bataawe hae. Uu aapan pitaji ke  "Abdülmennan" (literally "Servant of the Generous and Merciful One") bole hae, ek title jiske  Ottoman jamaana me kaamme laawa jaawat rahaa, ek Muslim convert ke  non-Muslim pitaji ke.
