The Jāmeh Mosque of Natanz (Persian: مسجد جامع نطنز, romanized: Masjid-i Jami (Natanz), lit.'Great Mosque of Natanz'; Arabic: جامع نطنز) is a Shi'ite Friday mosque (jāmeh), khanqah, and mausoleum complex located in the city of Natanz, in the province of Isfahan, Iran.

The imamzadeh complex dates from the Mongol Ilkhanid era and was first constructed during the reign of the Mongol ruler Öljaitü; and it contains the tomb of Abdul Samad al-Isfahani, a prominent Sufi ascetic. The complex was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 9 July 1932, administered by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization of Iran.
