The mosque is significant in that it constitutes a distinctive sign of the Abbasid era in Baghdad, as it was renovated several times by successive governments, but it has since retained its architectural value.[2]
History

Description
The Mosque is notable for its age and historical importance. Geographically, it is one of the most correct mosques in Baghdad due to its direction to the Qibla according to Mahmud al-Aluski. Its area is 2000 square meters. The mosque has a minaret of bricks and plaster and is topped by six domes of thin thickness.[3] The top of the minaret relieved pressure on the base, and the top of the minaret was decorated with blue and white tiles with beautiful decoration and geometric shapes.[5] The minaret is also significant for its unique characteristic and shape, the proportions of its cylindrical mass are different from what is familiar from the traditional Baghdadi minarets.[2] The Mosque is decorated with poetic verses such as the following:
Mosques for the remembrance of God were established and their building is still full of grace
There is a mosque in it after its arcades rotted along the range, so I shuddered
And it became a rocky bottom, the birds partook over it, and its pillars became stronger, and with remembrance, they calmed down
It was built by the Minister of Justice, then he finished it by paving the pyramids for him
A minister with the caliphate standing, you see Suleiman, the minister, the caliph
His love is Said, may God bless his victory and make us happy with him in the best way
He established the legends of prayer at a mosque and built the pillars of al-Hada and lit
Until the work was completed, I said a happy historian residing in the Qamariya Mosque [4]
Among the inscriptions on the walls of the mosque were written by a Sheikh named "Abd al-Rahman Al-Suwaidi", these are the following verses:
And Aisha Al-Khair lived in the place of ablution, so it made many palaces
And in it, from the flow of water, an earthquake quenched the thirsty for eternity
By their faith, they relaxed (their Lord gave them a purifying drink)[4]
