the mosque and hence the name.
Jawab Masjid was built to maintain symmetry. To the left of the Taj is a
mosque made up of red sandstone. It is a common practice to build a mosque
next to a tomb, as it sanctifies the area and provides for a place of
worship. This mosque is still used for Friday prayers.
