Moti Masjid (Lahore Fort)

Moti Masjid (Punjabi, ), one of the "Pearl Mosques", is a 17th-century religious building located inside the Lahore Fort. It is a small, white marble structure built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, and is among his prominent extensions (such as Sheesh Mahal and Naulakha pavilion) to the Lahore Fort Complex.〔Nadiem (2004)〕 The mosque is located on the western side of Lahore Fort, closer to Alamgiri Gate, the main entrance.
== Etymology ==
''Moti'' in Urdu language means ''pearl'', which designates a perceived preciousness to the religious structure. It was an established practice among Mughal emoperors to name the mosques after generic names for gemstones. Other such examples are ''Mina Masjid'' (Gem Mosque) and ''Nagina Masjid'' (Jewel Mosque), both located in Agra Fort and completed in 1637 under Shah Jahan's reign.〔Koch 1991, p. 121-22)〕 The mosque, built between 1630–35,〔Nath (1982), p. 422〕 is the first among the mosques with jewel names built by Shah Jahan in Agra Fort (1647–53), and his son Aurangzeb in the Red Fort (1659–60).
