The mosque is named in honour of Amaar (R.A.), a respected figure in Islamic tradition (the title R.A. stands for Radi Allahu Anhu — “May Allah be pleased with him”), reflecting the community’s reverence and spiritual connection. It serves as an active spiritual centre for local Muslims, where residents gather for the five daily prayers (Salaat), the Friday Jumma congregational prayer, and special observances during important Islamic festivals such as Eid al‑Fitr, Eid al‑Adha, Milad un Nabi, and Ramadan congregations. While detailed historical documentation — such as the exact year the mosque was established or the name of its founder — is not widely published in formal heritage records or online archives, its recurring presence in mosque directories and prayer‑time listings signifies that it is a recognised and regularly used place of worship within the Qasim Nagar / Bathindi community. For residents, Masjid Amaar (R.A.) functions not only as a prayer space but also as a focal point for neighbourhood interaction, community announcements, and informal religious education.
