It was built by Nuruddin Salim Jahangir, for his mother Mariam-uz-Zamani, a Hindu wife of Mughal Emperor, Akbar. The mosque is located inside the old Masti Gate and is one of Lahore's first mosques.
It was made into a gunpowder factory by Ranjit Singh due to the mosque's utilization, that the mosque became known as Barudkhana Wali Masjid. In 1850 the mosque was returned to the Muslims of Lahore who were able to contribute to it.;
