Indo Islamic Heritage
Masjid Quraishiyan (also spelled Masjid Qureshiyan or similar variations) is a local mosque in the Maswani area near Fatehpur city, Uttar Pradesh, India. It serves as a community prayer site for the local Muslim residents in this rural/village locality along NH232.
Masjid Quraishiyan is a modest, community-managed local mosque in Maswani village, Fatehpur district, Uttar Pradesh. Unlike grand historical monuments like the Jama Masjid in nearby Fatehpur Sikri (a UNESCO site built in the 16th century by Emperor Akbar), this is a simpler, everyday place of worship reflecting local Islamic heritage in the region. It is associated with the Quraishiyan (Qureshi) community, often linked to traditional occupations or lineages in Indian Muslim society. Specific historical details like the exact year of construction are not widely documented online, suggesting it is a relatively modern or mid-20th-century local structure rather than an ancient monument. It remains an active site for daily prayers and community gatherings.
