The mosque, constructed during the Lodi period, is designed on a rectangular plan. It features an octagonal drum adorned with a Kangura (battlement) pattern. The façade displays recessed arches, with the parapet wall also embellished with the Kangura motif. A prominent bulbous dome crowns the structure, topped with an inverted lotus and a very small finial. The front of the mosque has five pointed arch openings, with the central archway being larger than the side arches. Wooden doors, which appear to be later additions, are present. Rectangular niches are situated above the main archway. The walls of the mosque are built with bricks and plastered with cement. Red sandstone has been used for decorative elements, while ceramic tiles are applied to the dome.
