Changes After Construction
The masjid was built in wood in 1894 (Hijri 1312).
Over time, it fell into ruin due to neglect, was completely destroyed in the fire of 1990, and no trace of the structure remained.
It was then rebuilt with the support of the local people and reopened for worship in 1992.
Featured Highlights
Despite its small scale, the structure has a silhouette that is easily noticed within the street fabric with its tall minaret rising among the surrounding buildings.
The present-day structure, after the reconstruction, has a reinforced-concrete body and a tile-covered roof arrangement.
A flat ceiling arrangement is seen in the interior; tile covering and tile-motif ornamental elements stand out in the mihrab, minbar, and preaching pulpit.
It is stated that in the small courtyard of the masjid are the graves of the patron and his family; this creates a layer that recalls the “graveyard/burial” culture associated with the Sufi Lodge-masjid tradition.
