Masjid Fazle Rehmani (also known as Masjid-e-Fazle Rehmani) is a local mosque in Farrukhabad, Uttar Pradesh, closely associated with the revered Sufi saint Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehman Ganjmuradabadi (born 1793 CE/1208 Hijri, passed away circa mid-19th century). It holds spiritual significance among followers of the Rehmani silsila (spiritual lineage), with traditions claiming divine blessings and visits by prophetic figures in spiritual visions. As a community mosque, it serves local worshippers and is not a major tourist site but reflects the rich Sufi heritage of the region.
Masjid Fazle Rehmani is a modest yet spiritually significant local mosque located in Farrukhabad district, Uttar Pradesh. It is deeply linked to Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehman Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih), a prominent 19th-century Sufi saint and scholar known as Owais-e-Dauran and Qutub-ul-Waqt. Born on 1st Ramzan-ul-Mubarak 1208 Hijri (approximately 1793 CE) in Ganjmuradabad (near Unnao), the saint's influence extended across northern India, including Farrukhabad, where many followers and narrations of his miracles (karamat) originate. The mosque, referred to in hagiographical accounts as "Masjid-e-Fazle Rehmani," is described in spiritual traditions as a blessed place. One notable narration states that the saint received divine inspiration (ilham) declaring: "In our mosque (Masjid-e-Fazle Rehmani), the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), his companions, family, and great saints have frequently offered prayers. Whoever enters it, we are responsible for their forgiveness, and the fire of Hell is forbidden upon them." This underscores its revered status among devotees, with stories of miracles occurring in or near mosques visited by the saint, including instances in the Farrukhabad area.
