The Shah Jahan Mosque (Urdu: شاہ جہاں مسجد), also known as the Jamia Masjid of Thatta (Urdu: جامع مسجد ٹھٹہ), is a 17th-century building that serves as the central mosque for the city of Thatta, in the Pakistani province of Sindh. The mosque is considered to have the most elaborate display of tile work in South Asia and is also notable for its geometric brick work - a decorative element that is unusual for Mughal-period mosques. It was built during the reign of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, who bestowed it to the city as a token of gratitude and is heavily influenced by Central Asian architecture - a reflection of Shah Jahan's campaigns near Samarkand shortly before the mosque was designed.

Shah Jahan Mosque
The Shah Jahan Mosque, also known as the Jamia Masjid of Thatta, is a 17th-century building that serves as the central mosque for the city of Thatta, Sindh.
The mosque is considered to have the most elaborate display of tile work in South Asia and is also notable for its geometric brick work - a decorative element that is unusual for Mughal-period mosques.
It was built during the reign of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, who bestowed it to the city as a token of gratitude, and is heavily influenced by Central Asian architecture - a reflection of Shah Jahan's campaigns near Samarkand shortly before the mosque was designed.
Shah Jahan sought refuge in Thatta from his father Emperor Jahangir after he had rebelled against his father.
Shah Jahan was impressed by the hospitality he received by the Sindhi people and ordered construction of the mosque as a token of gratitude.
Construction of the mosque may have also been partially motivate by a desire to help alleviate the effects of a devastating storm that impacted the region in 1637 and which had nearly destroyed Thatta.
Shah Jahan's campaigns in Central Asia during this era influenced the mosque's architectural style, as Timurid influences were introduced into the Mughal Empire as his armies pressed towards Samarkand, in modern-day Uzbekistan.
Despite the fact that the Emperor was not in the region during its construction and so was unlikely directly involved in its construction, its profuse tile-work and intricate brick work indicate that it was funded by the Mughal's imperial coffers.
Restoration works were carried out by Emperor Aurangzeb in 1692, as well as by Murad Ali Khan Talpur in 1812.
The mosque was inscribed on the tentative UNESCO World Heritage list in 1993, but has not been conserved to the same high standards as the Wazir Khan Mosque or Badshahi Mosque in northern Pakistan.

The Shah Jahan Masjid (Urdu: شاہ جہاں مسجد), also known as the Jamia Masjid of Thatta (Urdu: جامع مسجد ٹھٹہ), is a 17th century building that serves as the central masjid for the city of Thatta, in the Pakistani province of Sindh. The masjid was built during the reign of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, who bestowed it to the city as a token of gratitude. The masjid is considered to have the most elaborate display of tile work in South Asia, and is also notable for its geometric brick work - a decorative element that is unusual for Mughal-period masjid
Location
The masjid is located in eastern Thatta - the capital of Sindh in the 16th and 17th centuries before Sindh's capital was shifted to nearby Hyderabad. It is located near the Makli Necropolis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The site is approximately 100 kilometres from Karachi.
Shah Jahan sought refuge in Thatta from his father Emperor Jahangir, after he had rebelled against his father. Shah Jahan was impressed by the hospitality he received by the Sindhi people, and ordered construction of the masjid as a token of gratitude. Construction of the masjid may have also been partially motivate by a desire to help alleviate the effects of a devastating storm that impacted the region in 1637, and which had nearly destroyed Thatta.
Background
Shah Jahan's campaigns in Central Asia during this era influenced the masjid's architectural style, as Timurid influences were introduced into the Mughal Empire as his armies pressed towards Samarkand, in modern day Uzbekistan. Despite the fact that the Emperor was not in the region during its construction, and so was unlikely directly involved in its construction, its profuse tile-work and intricate brick work indicate that it was funded by the Mughal's imperial coffers
Persian inscriptions at the masjid indicated that it was built between 1644 and 1647, during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. An eastern addition was completed in 1659, during the reign of Emperor Aurangzeb.
History
The masjid's mihrab had initially been incorrectly aligned with Makka. The Sufi mystic, Makhdum Nooh, who is buried in the nearby city of Hala is said to have been approached by the masjid's planners in order to correct its alignment. Popular tradition maintains that Makhdum Nooh then corrected the error overnight by the power of his prayer, thereby ensuring his status as a saint.Historical records show that the masjid's mihrab had actually been rebuilt a century after the masjid's construction.
Architecture
The Shah Jahan masjid's architectural style is overtly influenced by Turkic and Persian styles. The masjid is characterized by extensive brickwork and the use of blue tiles, both of which were directly influenced by Timurid architectural styles from Central Asia − from where the previous rulers of Sindh, the Tarkhans, had hailed before the region was annexed by the Mughals in 1592
Layout
The layout of the masjid may have been influenced by the conservative Timurid-style Humayun Masjid in Kachhpura, near the city of Agra, in modern day India. The main entryway into the masjid complex is through a Persian-style Charbagh, or quadrangle garden.
The main prayer hall is set to the west of its central courtyard, which features iwans, or portals, in each of its four cardinal directions. The courtyard is rectangular in shape, and measures 169 feet by 97 feet. It is surrounded by aisled galleries, which are lined with 33 arches.
The masjid's mihrab features pierced screens - an element that is commonly employed on Mughal funerary monuments, but unusual in Mughal masjid. The masjid features excellent acoustics; a person speaking on one end of the dome can be heard from the other end when the speech exceeds 100 decibels. Prayers in the main prayer hall can be heard throughout the entire building.
The masjid is unusual for its lack of minarets. It has a total of 93 domes, the most of any structure in Pakistan
