Masjid Safiya Bee and Masjid Safiya Bee are small but significant neighborhood mosques located in Chowki Imambada, Kali Basti, within the historic Peer Gate area of old Bhopal. These mosques serve as active places of daily worship for the local Muslim community and reflect the traditional pattern of naming mosques after women benefactors or respected figures, in this case “Safiya Bee.” While detailed historical records or architectural accounts are not readily available, both mosques are believed to have been established by local patrons to serve the dense residential quarters around Noor Mahal Road and Balaipura. They continue to function as community centers for offering prayers, especially Friday congregations, and contribute to the religious and cultural life of the walled city. Their presence near Imambada Chowki also connects them to the rich religious traditions of the area, where mosques and imambadas coexist as important landmarks of Bhopal’s heritage.
