Burhani Masjid is an important Dawoodi Bohra religious and heritage landmark situated in Voharwad, Shera, Godhra. It serves as a central place of worship for the local Dawoodi Bohra community, hosting daily prayers, Friday congregational prayers and religious gatherings. The mosque also reflects the longstanding presence and religious heritage of the Dawoodi Bohra community in Godhra. The mosque is particularly notable for its traditional ornamental architecture, decorative craftsmanship and historic character. Its structure has reportedly undergone renovation while retaining elements of its older architectural identity. A distinctive feature is its clock tower, which is frequently mentioned by visitors. The mosque complex also has a courtyard and an associated shrine (Dargah Sharif), making it a place of both congregational worship and devotional visitation. The shrine within the complex is associated with Syedi Ismailji Badruddin Shaheed (Q.R.), a revered Dawoodi Bohra figure. Devotees visit the shrine for Ziyarat and prayers. However, a reliable historical record establishing the mosque's original construction date, founder or complete architectural chronology could not be confirmed.
