context_section_description: Although the mosque was built during the reign of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, architectural features of the Shah Jahani era are present in the mosque; these include floral arabesque, interlacement kashi, fresco works, and multifoil arches in the interior of the mosque. The mosque has three domes. Although the façade has been reconstructed, it still bears the inscription of the mosque's name. Pakistan Today wrote that the inner walls were once decorated like the walls of the Wazir Khan Mosque and the Sunehri Masjid.

  This wonderful mosque is situated inside the Mochi Gate. Whoever enters the city through Mochi Gate finds this magnificent and colourful building straight from the Mochi Gate. This small mosque was once very comprehensive and beautiful.
