Mosque of Mariyam Zamani Begum

Begum Shahi Mosque, officially The Mosque of Mariyam Zamani Begum, is an early 17th-century mosque situated in the Walled City of Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The mosque was built between 1611 and 1614 during the reign of Mughal Emperor Jahangir in honor of his mother, Wali Nimat Mariam-uz-Zamani Begum Sahiba, chief consort of Emperor Akbar.It is Lahore's earliest surviving example of a Mughal-era mosque, and influenced construction of the larger Wazir Khan Mosque a few decades later. The foundation as stated by one of the inscriptions on the mosque was laid by the Dowager Empress Wali Nimat Mariam-uz-Zamani Begum Sahiba herself in the year 1611.

During the Sikh rule in Lahore, this mosque was turned into a gunpowder factory by Ranjit Singh, for which it was then known as Barudkhana Wali Masjid.
