Indo Islamic Heritage
Masjid Hanafi is a neighbourhood mosque situated on Chattar Pura–Chandpura Road, Sheikh Damu Pura, Mau.

Its location within Sheikh Damu Pura makes it part of the living religious and community heritage of Mau.
Masjid Hanafi is located at WHV6+794, Chattar Pura–Chandpura Road, Sheikh Damu Pura, Mau. The mosque serves the local community for regular Islamic worship, including the five daily prayers, Jumu'ah (Friday prayer), Ramadan observances, Eid prayers and other religious gatherings. The name Hanafi identifies the mosque with the Hanafi school of Islamic jurisprudence, one of the four major Sunni schools of law and a particularly influential tradition in North India. The designation reflects the religious orientation of the mosque rather than providing evidence of its age or foundation. As a neighbourhood mosque, Masjid Hanafi also contributes to the social fabric of Sheikh Damu Pura, potentially supporting religious instruction, community interaction and charitable activities. Its significance is therefore best understood as living Islamic heritage, with the mosque continuing to serve its local community.
