Haji Sultan Ali Mosque, Islamic place of worship near Nizami metro station in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The Haji Sultan Ali Mosque features a square layout with a 23-meter height, incorporating a sky-colored dome equipped with twelve windows and twelve interior columns.

Built between 1904 and 1910 under architect Zivar bay Ahmadbayov, the mosque underwent repurposing during Soviet times before returning to religious functions after Azerbaijan's independence.

The mosque maintains separate prayer spaces across two floors, with the upper level designated for women and the lower level reserved for men.

The building stands near the Nizami metro station in central Baku, making it accessible through public transportation for both worshippers and visitors.

During the 1995 minaret construction, workers discovered the grave of Ahmad, a soldier from the Islamic Army of the Caucasus who died in 1918.
