This small Ottoman period mosque is located in the old walled city of Diyarbakır, just south of the citadel in the northeastern corner of the city. It was built during the early seventeenth/eleventh century AH but has been significantly renovated since.
The mosque takes the form of a domed cube. A courtyard on the east side of the mosque has an arcade on the south side with an additional mihrab. A minaret rises from the southeastern corner of the complex. The minaret was heavily damaged in the nineteenth century and has been rebuilt.
