According to Mahmoud Megdiche, the mosque is situated in the “Houmet Al Hisar” (literally, the quarter of the embargo), also known as “Haret el Sonnaa” or the quarter of the laborers. This neighborhood is situated in the southwest corner of the Medina. The neighborhood where the mosque is located is regarded as one of the most important districts of the medina because it is the closest to the kasbah, which gave it a significant economic role. It is bordered on the south by the main square of the kasbah, on the west by Borj El Ksar street, on the north by Amilcar Street, and on the east side by Sidi Abbes street. Additionally, the majority of the medina’s craftspeople have lived there for many years.

A prayer room, an imam’s room, and a minaret at the southwest corner make up the mosque. On the east, north, and south sides, three patios encircle the structure. On the east side, the primary door leads out onto Sidi Abbès Street. It stands out thanks to its traditional Ottoman design. The door measures 2.5 meters wide by 3 meters long. It provides access to the mosque’s whole east patio, which is wide (30 meters).

The mosque’s oldest component is the minaret. It is roughly 14 meters high, 3 meters on each side, and has a square shape. It is made up of a base of 10.5 meters and a hexagonal portion measuring 2.8 meters that is topped by a dome.
