The madrasah consists of a set of rooms around the mosque yard with colonnades in front. The inscription on the South-looking face of the teaching-praying place to the North of the yard says the madrasah was built by Ahmet Pasha in 1736 (1149). Since the inscription on the mosque gives the same year, it is clear that the mosque and madrasah were both built in the same year.

Smooth cut Stones were used as construction material. With the exception of the domed classroom to the north of the yard, all rooms in the madrasah have cradle vaults. To the right of the mosque and on the south edge of the yard there are 3 such rooms and a larger one to the left. There are 7 rooms to the east of the yard. There are 7 and 8 vaulted rooms to the east of liwan and to the west of prayer place, respectively. Finally, there are 9 rooms to the east of the yard. While the kitchen is located at the north-western corner of the yard, toilets are to the north-east. The madrasah has 34 rooms with cradle vaults, 1 domes classroom-prayer place, a liwan, a kitchen and toilets

The terrace between the mosque and classroom was built for summer time prayers. There is a square-shaped pond to the south. The yard of the Madrasah is decorated as a nursery and flower garden.

The Rızvaniye Mosque and Madrasah were restored in 1992-93 by the Culture, Education and Research Foundation of Şanlıurfa Governorate (ŞURKAV).
