Masjid-E-Hamza is a neighborhood mosque situated at 13-27, Tulasi Nagar, Kanuru, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh (PIN 520007). Kanuru is a well-established residential and semi-urban locality on the outskirts of Vijayawada that has grown rapidly as the city expanded east and north. Tulasi Nagar and nearby housing colonies developed over time with planned streets, shops, and community services. Masjid-E-Hamza was established by the local Muslim community to meet the daily religious and congregational needs of residents. It serves as a spiritual center for the five daily prayers (ṣalāh), the weekly Friday (Jumuʿah) congregation, and major Islamic observances such as Ramadan Taraweeh, Eid-ul-Fitr, and Eid-ul-Adha. Beyond formal worship, the mosque also supports Qur’anic recitation and informal religious instruction (taʿlīm), helping strengthen community bonds in Tulasi Nagar and surrounding sectors of Kanuru.
