He was a member of the Majdizadeh family who immigrated from Crimea to Amasya and and had been known for his scientific activities in the last two centuries. Mehmed Sabri, son of Amasya Mufti Abdurrahman Kamil Yetkin, one of the religious men of the National Struggle period, and also his successor, had undergone a competent, qualified education. Mehmed Sabri Yetkin, who received diploma in different branches of science from the famous scholars of the period and especially from his father, served as the Mufti of Amasya between 1942-1962 after his duties as teacher and public servant.
