Its architecture features traditional Islamic design elements, including a prominent minaret and intricately decorated facades. The mosque serves as a central place of worship and community gatherings, reflecting the spiritual life of Massawa's residents. Visitors are encouraged to dress modestly and observe local customs when visiting.

A beautiful old mosque, unlike most of the buildings next to it, it does not suffer from a lack of maintenance and is prone to collapse, and there are also toilets in it.
