    The mosque is named after the then ruler of the Ottoman Empire, Sultan İbrahim, who ruled from 1640 to 1648. The domed building was renovated at the beginning of the 21st century. Only the base of the minaret of the mosque on the west side remains.[9] The dome, freed from plaster inside, provides a good view of the stone dome construction. The only remaining decorative element inside the mosque is a Miḥrāb embedded in the wall, an Islamic prayer niche, with the embedded saying كلّما دخل عليها زكريا المحراب kullamā daḫala ʿalaihā Zakariyā ʾl-miḥrāba ("Whenever Zechariah (now) came to her in the temple"; Translation after Rudolf Paret), part of verse 37 from the 3rd sura of the Koran.[
