The Pathar Ki Masjid stands on the bank of river Ganges near the Takht Shri Harmandir Saheb.[1] Parvez Shah, son of Jahangir, established Pathar Ki Masjid in 1621.[2] The structure is built of stone, and so it got its name as Pathar Ki Masjid.
Pathar Ki Masjid is very popular among the local Islamic community. Apart from religious functions, this old mosque is a major landmark of the city.[3]
Pathar Ki Masjid is also called Saif Khan's mosque, Chimmi Ghat mosque, and Sangi Masjid.
