Dabgir Mosque is an old mosque made by bricks, in the outskirts of the historic town of Thatta, Sindh. It was built by Mir Khusro Khan in 1688, and is known for its tile work and sculptured mihrab (prayer chamber). It is 1 km south of the Shah Jahan Mosque on the road to Sujawal. The mihrab is carved with such delicacy that it looks like sandal wood rather than stone. The mosque is no longer in use. Thatta is located 100 km east of Karachi.
