This building which has been renovated in subsequent periods, is used as a school of religious sciences. The Emadoddoleh mosque has four porches, a portal, courtyard, nocturnal area with columns and various chambers.
On the tile work of the porch there is an inscription with the name of Naseredin Shah, the founder, and the date of construction, i.e., 1285 AH. In the eastern porch of the courtyard is a wooden shelter. The entrance of mosque is through this eastern porch and is connected by a large wooden door to the goldsmith sector of the bazaar. According to narrations, the wooden door has been transferred from the sepulchre of Hazrat Ali to this mosque. The same is a remnant from the Safavid era.
