The mosque has been renovated and reconstructed numerous times over the centuries, but still retains some of its original features, including the horseshoe-arched portico and the prayer hall with its rows of columns. The mosque is a popular tourist destination and attracts visitors from all over the world. In addition to its historical significance, the mosque is also notable for its architectural features, such as the carved wooden pulpit and the intricately decorated minaret. The mosque also contains a number of interesting artifacts, such as a number of ancient Islamic inscriptions and a collection of rare manuscripts.

The battle resulted in a decisive victory for the Muslims, and is considered to be one of the most significant battles in the early history of Islam.
