Sardar or Sa’atlou Mosque is a Qajar era (1785-1925) structure in the old texture of Urmia and is approximately 500 meters from the Jame Mosque of the city. This brick mosque has a 22-meter Shabistan (inner sanctum) with 12 stone pillars. These octagonal pillars have column headers with Muqarnas (ornamental vaulting) decorations. About one-meter of the length of the walls of the Shabistan are covered in green tiles. There is a border consisting of pink, white, blue, yellow and green seven-colored with floral motifs above the green tiles.
A small entrance connects the large Shabistan to a smaller one that has no ornate decorations. There is a small Mihrab (prayer niche) with colorful tilework and Quranic inscriptions on the southern part of this Shabistan.
