The tomb is efficiently planned and beautifully decorated with intricate details with Verses from Quran Sharif.
Though the mosque is more compact and smaller than the tomb, however; it stands out due to the harmonious architecture and splendour.
The entrance of the mosque is adorned with elaborated ornamentation with two minars at each of the corners. It is said that if Ibrahim Roza would be made up of marble, its beauty would be close to Taj Mahal if not surpass it.
The architecture is extremely appealing and it is a combination of beauty and grandeur.
