The founder of this small and simple mosque was Saheb Soltan Beigom, the daughter of a courtier in the Shah Suleiman's court. In Azeri, the word ''Ilchi (elçi)'' means messenger. The mosque was built in 1686 CE under the supervision of Mohammad Ali ben Ostad ALibeyk.<ref>{{cite book |title=Rāhnamā ye Safar be Ostān e Esfāhān |trans-title=Travel Guide for the Province Isfahan |publisher=Rouzane |isbn=964-334-218-2 |author=Yaghoubi, Hosseyn |editor=Beheshti, Arash |page=105 |language=Persian |year=2004}}</ref>
