One of the oldest, if not the oldest mosque in Madurai. Legend has it that it came into existence towards the end of the 13th century and was constructed by Qazi Syed Tajuddin.
Qazi Syed Tajuddin is believed to be a descendant of the prophet Mohammed and his successors have been managing the affairs of the mosque since then.
It is also known locally as the Kazimar Periya Pallivasal, and the land on which it is built was given by the King Kulasekhara Pandiyan.

One of the oldest Mosque in South India, administered by the descendants of Hazrat Khazi Syed Tajuddin (RA), who are all Seyyidus Saadats. Three Waliyullahs (namely Sinna Hazrat,Peria Hazrat and Saalim Hazrat) are from this Seyyid family and their Maqbara is within the Masjid Compound.

Built in 13th Century, this mosque is first Islamic place of worship in Madurai. It was built by Hazrat Kazi Syed Tajuddin, who was a descendant of Prophet Muhammad when he has visited Madurai. The land on which this mosque was built was given to him by Pandyan King Kulasekara. This mosque also has Maqbara of many prominent Hazrats of Madurai such as Hazrat Syed Abdus Salaam Ibrahim Rahmatullahi Alaihim, Hazrat Meer Amjad Ibrahim and others.

The history about the construction of this 700+ years old Masjid and the origin of muslim community in it's locality is a worth knowing and Deals with goosebumps.

This Masjid can accommodate around 2000 individuals at one time. This is also one of the oldest masjid in India.

The Interiors are really amazing and provides you Perfect environment to achieve sukunath and kushoo' in your Salath.
