Summary/Abstract: Among numerous mosques of Prizren, there is Katib Sinan mosque, named after its constructor. Exact date of its construction is not determined as the plaque of its construction is not preserved. But what is known and determined is that renovation of this mosque took place in 1311 Hijri (1893/4). This is also confirmed by Chronogram/Târîh available in ottoman language that is preserved on the gate of the mosque. The chronogram was written by poet “Hifzî”. My paper aims to shed light on the life and works of the autor.
