Masjid Sheikh-ul-Alam is situated in Ramhama village, within the Budgam district of Jammu & Kashmir (PIN 193411). The mosque is named after Sheikh-ul-Alam (RA), also known as Nund Rishi, the revered Kashmiri Sufi saint and patron of the Rishi order, reflecting the region’s deep-rooted spiritual and cultural heritage. At present, no authenticated historical inscriptions, archival records, or published documentation are available in public sources to confirm the exact year of establishment, founders, or phases of construction of the mosque. Like many village mosques named after revered saints, it is believed to have been established through collective community efforts to honor the saint’s legacy and to serve as a center for daily prayers and religious gatherings. The mosque continues to function as an important religious and communal space, hosting daily prayers, Friday congregations, and special religious observances, thereby playing a significant role in the spiritual life of Ramhama and surrounding areas.
