The Muhammad Mosque, also known as the Siniggala Mosque, stands in the Old City of Baku as the earliest surviving Islamic structure in Azerbaijan, built in the 11th century. Now a former mosque, it represents a significant milestone in the architectural history of the region—the first building definitively linked to Islam through its architectural features and documented dating.
