Hadim Ali Pascha came from a Christian family in Bosnia. In the 1480s he was appointed governor of Rumelia . In the war of the Ottoman Empire against the Principality of Moldova , Hadim commanded an army that invaded Moldova in July 1485, forcing its ruler Ștefan cel Mare to seek refuge in Poland . During the war against the Mamluks in 1488, together with the Ottoman general Hersekoğlu Ahmed Pascha, he led two armies in the fight against the Mamluks on the Anatolian coast. Hadim's army was defeated in a battle near Adana and had to withdraw. Hadim, who until then was Sultan Bayezid's most highly respected military commander, was demoted.

Hadim had two mosques built in Istanbul , which are located in what is now the Fatih district.
