Masjid Moula Ali is located at Shop No. 16/182, Moulangar Masjid Road, Moula Nagar, Moulangar, Gollapudi, Andhra Pradesh (PIN 521225)—a suburban locality on the western fringe of Vijayawada that has grown rapidly in recent decades due to urban spillover and housing development along the NH65 corridor. Gollapudi and its neighborhoods such as Moula Nagar developed from small village settlements into well-connected residential areas with local markets, schools, and community institutions. Within this transforming rural-urban environment, Masjid Moula Ali was established by the local Muslim community to provide a dedicated place of worship and serve the everyday religious needs of families in Moula Nagar, Gollapudi, and neighboring settlements. The mosque hosts the five daily prayers (ṣalāh), the Friday (Jumuʿah) congregational prayer, and major Islamic observances such as Ramadan Taraweeh prayers, Eid-ul-Fitr, and Eid-ul-Adha. It also supports Qur’anic recitation, informal religious instruction (taʿlīm), and community interaction that strengthens social and spiritual bonds among local residents.
