Masjid-e-Hussaini (Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat) is a respected neighborhood mosque located in Sai Sree Layout, Parappana Agrahara, Bengaluru, Karnataka. The mosque was established to serve the religious, spiritual, and social needs of Muslim residents living in Parappana Agrahara and nearby localities of South Bengaluru. Over time, it has become an important center for daily prayers, Friday (Jumu’ah) congregations, Ramadan worship, Qur’anic recitation, and community gatherings. The designation Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat identifies the mosque with mainstream Sunni Islamic tradition rooted in the teachings of the Qur’an, Sunnah, and established scholarly schools. The name Hussaini reflects reverence for Imam Hussain ibn Ali, who is widely honored in the Muslim world as a symbol of sacrifice, justice, courage, and steadfast faith. Like many urban mosques, Masjid-e-Hussaini functions beyond worship by supporting Islamic education, moral guidance, charitable initiatives, youth engagement, and neighborhood unity. During important occasions such as Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Adha, and special nights of prayer, the mosque likely becomes a focal point for collective worship and social interaction. Architecturally, it reflects a practical and dignified modern mosque style suited to a residential layout, emphasizing accessibility, cleanliness, and congregational capacity. Today, the mosque remains a valued religious landmark in Parappana Agrahara and contributes to the spiritual life of Bengaluru’s diverse urban community.
