Masjid-e-Iranian, known locally as the Moghal Masjid, Mumbai
is a Shia mosque in the Dongri locality of Mumbai. It was built in 1860 by Haji
Mohammed Husain Shirazi, a prominent Iranian businessman who had moved to
Mumbai and was restored in the 1990s by Reza Kabul.
The mosque is built in an Iranian style. The exterior is
embellished with coloured tiles. Verses from the Quran are inscribed on
the walls.
