This was built during the era of the Qutb Shahi rulers. The Moula Ali Dargah is one of the 11 heritage sites identified by the Heritage Conservation Committee of HUDA. It is basically a large rocky area, with undulating terrain. There is another hillock opposite the Moula Ali Hill, called "Qadm-e-Rasool" on which the sacred relics of the Prophet were supposedly deposited by Mohammad Shakrullah Rehan, a servant of Asaf Jahi.
