Bohra Samaj Masjid, located at 294 MG Road in Alirajpur, Madhya Pradesh (PIN 457887), is a prominent place of worship for the Dawoodi Bohra community in the region. While the exact date of its establishment is not publicly documented, it is believed to have been built in the early to mid-20th century, in line with the tradition of Bohra community centers developed across India during that period. The mosque serves not only as a spiritual hub for daily prayers and religious gatherings but also as a cultural and social center (jamaat khana) where the community comes together for events, discussions, and celebrations. Known for their discipline, cleanliness, and close-knit traditions, the Dawoodi Bohras have maintained this mosque as a reflection of their values and heritage. Architecturally, though modest compared to grand Bohra mosques in larger cities, it follows the community’s aesthetic blend of Islamic and regional influences. The Bohra Samaj in Alirajpur also actively participates in civic activities such as Independence Day rallies and social awareness programs, reinforcing the mosque's role as a vital institution in both religious and public life.
