A perfume (Arhar) merchants, who migrated from Tirunelveli, built the masjid. It took 44 years to complete, with construction beginning in 1860 and finishing in 1904.

The structure is made of limestone and mortar and polished with egg white. The façade is covered with cusped arches surrounding the open courtyard, where the prayer halls stand. There is a covered wudu pond in the southeastern corner, a small library on the eastern side, and a kitchen for the preparation of nonbu kanji (rice soup) during Ramadan. Hawkers line the entrance with amulets and items of worship.

According to the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH), the two minars with domed roofs on the northern and southern sides are 26 metres (85 ft) high. This pair of silver domes stand out in the skyline of the Town Hall area. The mosque can accommodate approximately 2,000 worshippers during Friday prayers.
