Veli Mehmed Pasha
Veli Mehmed Pasha (died 1716), also known as Mehmed Veli Pasha or Wālī Pasha, was an Ottoman statesman who served as Kapudan Pasha (1706–1707) and the Ottoman governor of Bosnia Eyalet (1707) and Egypt Eyalet (1711–1714, with a small break in 1712). When he was governor of Egypt in 1711, a Turkish preacher arrived in Cairo and began to denounce the local Egyptian practice of praying at the graves of Sufi saints, claiming that this was against Islam and that "the miracles of the saints end at the grave." An established local ulama (religious scholar) declared a fatwa against the Turkish preacher, dismissing his claims. However, the preacher had stirred the local populace, and the people threatened an insurrection against Veli Mehmed Pasha's government and violence against the local Sufi masters. When the supporters of the preacher sent a representative to voice their demands to Veli Mehmed, he offered to accept them, but when they left, he informed the Mamluk emirs that the cro ...

List Of Ottoman Governors Of Egypt
The Ottoman Empire's governors of Egypt from 1517 to 1805 were at various times known by different but synonymous titles, among them ''beylerbey'', viceroy, governor, governor-general, or, more generally, '' wāli''. Furthermore, the Ottoman sultans very often changed positions of their governors in rapid succession, leading to complex and long lists of incumbents (this being the main reason for a political crisis in 1623, where the local Ottoman soldiers successfully sued to keep Kara Mustafa Pasha as governor after his replacement by Çeşteci Ali Pasha after only one year). Governors ruled from the Cairo Citadel in Cairo. They ruled along with their divan (governmental council), consisting of a '' kadı'' (judge) and ''defterdar'' (treasurer). The title "''beylerbey''" refers to the regular governors specifically appointed to the post by the Ottoman sultan, while the title "''kaymakam''", when used in the context of Ottoman Egypt, refers to an acting governor who ruled over t ...
