The Al-Adiliyah Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع الْعَادِلِيَّة, romanizedJāmiʿ al-ʿAdilīyah; Turkish: Adliye Camii), or Dukaginzâde Mehmed Pasha Mosque, was a former külliye, now in partial ruins, in Aleppo, Syria.

Located to the southwest of the Citadel, in "Al-Jalloum" district of the Ancient City of Aleppo, a World Heritage Site, a few metres away from Al-Saffahiyah mosque, the former mosque was endowed by the Dukakinzade Mehmed Pasha in 1556. Dukakinzade Mehmed Pasha was the Albanian-Ottoman governor-general of Aleppo from 1551 until 1553 when he was appointed as governor-general of Egypt. He died in 1557 and the mosque was not completed until 973 AH (1565/1566 CE).
