It serves as both a spiritual and educational hub, where daily prayers, Friday congregations, and Islamic learning sessions take place. The masjid was established with the purpose of promoting the traditional Sunni teachings emphasizing love for the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), peaceful coexistence, and community service. The architectural design of the masjid reflects a blend of traditional Indo-Islamic elements, with a bright façade—often painted in shades of white and green—symbolizing purity and spiritual vibrance. The main dome and minarets are visible from afar, serving as a visual landmark for the local Muslim community. Inside, the prayer hall provides ample space for worshippers, especially during Jumu’ah (Friday prayers), Eid celebrations, and Mawlid gatherings where naats (poetic praises of the Prophet ﷺ) are recited. Religious activities at Masjid Ahle Sunnat also include Qur’an recitation classes, Tafseer lessons, and spiritual lectures by local scholars. The masjid plays a vital role in maintaining the cultural and moral fabric of the Muslim population in the region by fostering unity, compassion, and respect for all faiths.
