This mosque was built during the time of Feth Ali Shah Qajar on the ruins of an ancient mosque and is one of the most significant historical mosques in the country. Two relatively similar examples were built at the same time in the cities of Qazvin and Tehran, and all three of these mosques were known under the name of the Shah Mosque in the Pahlavi period. The architecture of the Sultani Mosque in Borujard is derived from the architecture of the Shah Mosque in Tehran.
