The southern and northern walls of the prayer hall were divided into two tiers, and separated from the vault by a cornice containing an inscription. Both tiers were divided by vertical panels.

The central tier of the wall was lined with text tables framed by a wide strip of decorative bordering. Medallions were painted above the semicircular windows. A shewbread table was painted on the central panel of the north wall. Twelve round loaves of bread on lattices stood on a table covered with a tablecloth.

Decorative panels with floral ornamentation lined the lower tier.
