The mosque is carved as much as the rocky area allows, and although it does not have a very smooth plan, it has a rectangular plan. The mosque has two entrances and the entrance sections are located in the north (Picture 1). To the south, there is a mihrab carved into the rock and a small pulpit formed by making a bench in the rocky area (Picture 2). The part of the nave extends parallel to the mihrab.
