Hayat Bakshi Mosque, Indo-Islamic mosque in Hayathnagar, Hyderabad, India.

Hayat Bakshi Mosque is a Qutb Shahi-style mosque in Hayathnagar, near Hyderabad, India. Its façade has five arches, two minarets, and a frieze and parapet running around twelve-sided arcaded galleries that protrude from the corner minarets. The prayer hall sits on a raised platform, with an ablution tank below it on the eastern side. The complex covers nearly 2.0 hectares and includes a caravanserai courtyard measuring 150 by 130 metres.

The mosque was built in 1672 under the rule of Abdullah Qutb Shah, one of the last sultans of the Golconda Sultanate. It was among the final major building projects of that dynasty, completed just a few years before the Mughals conquered the region.

The mosque takes its name from Hayat Bakshi Begum, daughter of Sultan Muhammad Qutb Shah and mother of Abdullah Qutb Shah, in whose reign it was built in 1672. The complex also served travellers: its caravanserai, a courtyard of about 150 by 130 metres, is said to have held 130 rooms for weary guests.

The building stands on elevated ground, so visitors should expect a few steps at the entrance. The complex covers a wide area with several distinct sections, so it is worth setting aside enough time to walk through all of them.

The complex includes a caravanserai courtyard measuring about 150 by 130 metres, said to have held 130 rooms for travellers. North-east of the mosque lies Hathi Bawli, "the elephant's well", a very large well. In May 2009 the archaeology and museums department sought permission from the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation to demolish twenty structures abutting the mosque, in breach of the 1960 Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act.
