'''Jama Masjid''', Tehseenganj, Husainabad, [[Lucknow]] is a mosque located at Tahseenganj (previously known as Mustafabad) area of Lucknow. The construction of this mosque was started in the year 1839 A.D. by [[Muhammad Ali Shah|Mohammad Ali Shah]], third [[Nawab of Awadh]] with the intention to surpass the [[Jama Masjid, Delhi|Jama Masjid]] at Delhi in size, but after his death the mosque was completed by his wife Queen Malika Jahan Sahiba in the year 1845 A.D. Built with "Lakhauri" bricks and plastered with lime, it is decorated with coloured [[stucco]] motifs. Standing on a square lofty terrace, it has a rectangular prayer hall, on the west with a magnificent facade of eleven arches. The central one is higher and provided with an unusually high doorway which rises above the roof in a sharply pointed arch decorated in coloured stucco. The prayer hall is surmounted by three pear-shaped high double domes decorated with an inverted lotus on the top and is also flanked by two octagonal four-storeyed tapering [[minaret]]s on either side, crowned by "[[Chhatri]]es" on the top.<br />
An [[Imambara]] known as Imambara Malika Jahan is also situated at the south of this mosque.<br />
