The Seyyed Mosque is a Twelver Shi'ite mosque and madrasa in Isfahan, Iran, built during the late nineteenth-century Qajar period by Mohammad Bagher Shafti, a prominent cleric and one of the first to achieve the rank of Hujjatul Islam. Executed in characteristic Qajar architectural style using brick, tile, and mortar, the structure remains active as a place of worship, though as of 2024 its construction remains incomplete, with ongoing restoration efforts. The mosque was inscribed on Iran's National Heritage List in 1958 and is administered by multiple state organizations including the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization of Iran.
