The El Adli in 20th century Syria

In Aleppo, due to the fame of the Al-Adiliyah Mosque built by Dukaginzade Mehmed Pasha, the family became known locally as El Adli in addition to Dukaginzade. The ancestral name and El Adli were used interchangeably since that era. This branch has produced many educators and scholars. One of them was Abd al-Latif Adli in the late 18th century. In Aleppo, in the 19th century Lutuf Bey el-Adli rose to the prestigious naqib al-ashraf position. In the 20th century, the family played an active role in Syrian political life. Fuad Bey el Adli was Minister of Labor and Public Works of Syria (1930).
