It replaces an older mosque that stood on the same site, and is one of the three mosques along the same road. The other mosques are the Masjid Daerah Balik Pulau and the Masjid Mukim Kongsi. As the Simpang Empat mosque is located near the village of Genting, it is also often known as the Masjid Jamek Simpang Empat Genting.

Masjid Jamek Simpang Empat Balik Pulau is painted pink. It has a gilded dome and a minaret with geometric designs.
