With the conquest of the Arabic world by Sultan Selim I (1517), the Caliphate passed from the vanquished Abbasids to the Ottoman sultans. The Islamic prophet Muhammad’s mantle, which was kept by the last Abbasid Caliph Mutawakkil III, was given to Selim I.

The various relics of Muhammad, his followers, and other items purportedly associated with Muhammad were brought to Topkapı Palace in Istanbul, where they remain to this day.

The relics are housed in the former private chambers of the sultan, the Privy Chambers, which are located in the Third Courtyard of the palace.

The Destimal Chamber is the room in which Abraham's Pot, Joseph's Turban, Moses's Staff, David's Sword, scrolls belonging to John the Baptist, and Muhammad's footprint are on display.

The Şadırvanlı Sofa is the room where the keys to the Kaaba,the gutters of the Kaaba, the casing of the Black Stone (Hacerü'l-Esved), the Door of Repentance, and the swords of Muhammad's companions are on display.
