This place is hardly a museum, museums have artefacts and descriptions and curators. This place merely has security guards and an entrance fee, it's a church of course and has been adopted as a place of prayer by multiple religions. It's not impressive, and there's not much to see. I have to compare this to the other places of worship I've seen around Europe... Hagia Sophia doesn't rate well, 3 stars is generous. If they even finish renovating the place, it might be worth 4 stars, but this place looks like it's been stripped out and had stuff pilfered over the last 100 years so there's nothing left. The only things you're likely to get out of this place is disappointment and sore feet. (I will add we attended with a private tour guide, and the history didn't help).
