Baba Masjid Shareef is a mosque located in Shopian town, in the Shopian district of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, India (PIN 192303). While there are no widely available published records that specifically name “Baba Masjid Shareef,” the historic Jamia Masjid, Shopian — also referred to locally as Baba Masjid or the main mosque of Shopian — reflects Mughal-era architectural influence with brick and wood construction, vaulted entrances, courtyards, and minarets that are prominent features of its historic design. The mosque’s exterior and interior architecture showcase traditional Mughal design elements, and the site has been recognised as one of the most beautiful mosques in the Shopian district. It was rebuilt in the mid-20th century over an earlier site linked with Mughal period religio-cultural history
