TheShahi Eid Gah (Urdu:شاہی عید گاہ مسجد) is an early 18th-century mosque located inMultan, southernPunjab.[1]
Located on the main Multan-Lahore highway in the Northeast of the oldest part of the city. The mosque is adjacent to the 20th centurySufi shrine ofAhmad Saeed Kazmi.
The mosque was built in 1735 CE during the reign of Mughal EmperorMuhammad Shah.[2] The mosque was funded by Nawab Abdul Samad Khan, who was the Mughal governor of Multan.[citation needed]
The mosque was used as a court during the early British period in Multan.[3] It was restored and returned to its original purpose in 1891 at the insistence of Deputy Commissioner H.C. Cookson.[3]
After the independence of Pakistan, the courtyard was expanded to accommodate more worshippers.[citation needed]
The mosque is spacious, with a vast courtyard and a prayer chamber measuring 250 feet by 54 feet, and features seven domes.[citation needed]
The mosque's exterior is embellished with glazed blue Multan-style tiles, while the interior is ornamented with intricate mosaics.[citation needed]
