Azim Shah was a saint who lived during the reign of Bahadur Shah II. His grave is located within the courtyard of a mosque and is situated on a low platform. The grave is coated with plaster, similar to another nearby grave on the same platform. Several other plastered graves are also present within the mosque's courtyard, although nothing is known about their origins or identities. The enclosure around the grave is constructed with brick masonry on the south and east sides, while a newly built brick structure lies to the north. Access to the enclosure is through an arched gateway. The original structure was made using rubble masonry and plaster, whereas the current enclosure is built using modern materials such as brick, cement, and concrete. The architectural style of the site is Mughal.
