Jama Mosque, Mosque in Mathura, India
The Jama Mosque stands with four 40-meter minarets, three bulbous domes, and a raised courtyard containing rectangular pavilions with bangla roofs and ogival archways.
Abd-un-Nabi Khan, the Governor under Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, constructed this red sandstone mosque in 1661 after purchasing the land from local residents.
The mosque facade displays ninety-nine names of Allah in Persian script, representing the connection between Islamic calligraphy and architectural decoration in Mughal structures.
Located at the highest point in Mathura, the mosque opens daily from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM without an entry fee and requires modest dress for visitors.
The rectangular pavilions within the mosque feature a combination of bangla roofs and ogival archways, showcasing specific architectural elements from the Mughal period.
