The grave of Khwaja Sahib is a simple mound of earth but it lies beneath a newly-built marble-and-mirror studded domed pavilion. It is open only to men and women can catch a glimpse of the hallowed tomb from behind marble jali screens. An adjacent marble enclosure houses the marble graves of Mughal emperors Bahadur Shah I (1707-1712), Shah Alain 11(1759-1806) and Akbar II (1806-1837). A little to the left of the dargah's Ajmeri Gate is a small mosque, Moti Masjid, built by Aurangzeb's son, Bahadur Shah I, who modelled this chapel on his father's more elaborate Moti Masjid within the Red Fort.
