Masjid Sharif Eidgah is a mosque and prayer site located in Lalkuan, Prem Nagar within the historic Old Heritage City of Jammu (PIN 180001). It is listed in local mosque directories as Masjid Sharif Eidgah and is recognised by residents as a neighbourhood mosque in this part of the old city, where multiple mosques and Eidgah prayer grounds serve the Muslim community. The name “Eidgah” suggests its traditional connection to large Eid prayers — open-air gatherings held during Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha — though specific historical records about when it was established, who founded it, or detailed architectural history are not widely published in publicly accessible historical sources. What is clear from community listings is that the mosque functions as an active place for the five daily prayers (Salaat), Friday Jumma prayers, and special congregations during religious festivals, reflecting its role as an integral part of the religious and social life of the Muslim community in the Prem Nagar / Lalkuan area of Jammu
