The
personal mosque of Aurungzeb, Moti Masjid or Pearl Mosque lies to the
west of Hammam. Situated on a higher level than courtyards, the
prayer-hall of the mosque has inlaid black-marble outlines of 'musallas'
(small carpets for prayers) and is surmounted by three bulbous domes. It
is said that these domes were originally copper plated and even the
eastern door is plated with copper leaves. The ladies of the seraglio
also used the mosque to offer their prayers to God.
