Moti Masjid is a historic Islamic structure situated within the Prithvi Raj Chauhan Fort complex in Dhola Kuna, Hansi, in Hisar district of Haryana. The site is associated with the historic fortification of Hansi, commonly identified as Asigarh Fort, a prominent historical landmark in the town. The fort is located at Dhola Kuna and carries considerable historical significance in the region. The mosque is particularly significant because it forms part of a larger historic complex where Islamic architectural elements coexist with structures and remains reflecting different periods of Hansi’s history. Local descriptions of the fort note the presence of monuments with strong Islamic architectural influence, as well as other religious and historical structures within the complex. Moti Masjid is specifically listed among the notable places located around the fort. Rather than functioning primarily as a modern neighbourhood mosque, Moti Masjid is better understood as a heritage religious structure associated with the historic fort complex. Its setting within the fort makes it relevant to the architectural and cultural history of Hansi and to the study of the town’s medieval and later historical landscape. The exact date of construction, patron, architect and original religious function of Moti Masjid could not be established reliably from the available public sources. Therefore, these details should not be attributed to a particular ruler or historical period without verification from archaeological or archival records.
