Its minbar was placed by Voyvodazade Müderris Ahmed Agha.
It was rebuilt in 1872 by Servet Sürür Agha, one of the statesmen of Sultan Abdulaziz.
It was last restored in 1952.

There is a small courtyard at the entrance to the mosque. A staircase on both sides leads into the mosque. The repair inscription above this entrance door states that the mosque burned down and was later revived by the Başmüsahip Sürür Agha in 1872.
There is no relation between the original structure of Hacı Küçük Mosque and the form revived by Sürür Ağa, the current mosque was built octagonally and as a two-storey, and fountains were added to the side. “The inside of its dome was decorated in the style of mansion pens, some ornamented cornices were added with the desire to imitate Arab architecture, and a minaret with columns around its balcony was added.
In 1952, it was repaired again with clean workmanship. In this last repair, the broken stalactite mihrab was patched, the minbar is made of wood.” The very small interior of the mosque is illuminated by 5 high windows, and of these windows, the one to the right of the mihrab and the one opening to the narthex are closed.
The mosque, which was later repaired many times by the community, has a single dome, a single-balcony minaret, and a usable well.
There is a historical wall fountain to the left of the courtyard entrance gate.
The mosque has differences from its original structure due to fires and repairs over time. The inscription above the entrance door contains concise expressions encouraging prayer and repentance.
