Noor-e-Ilahi Masjid is a neighbourhood congregational mosque situated on Meerut Road in Hindan Vihar, Sewa Nagar, within the city of Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh. Although it is located in Ghaziabad, its proximity to Noida and Hindon River makes it a commonly visited mosque for residents of adjoining areas, including eastern Noida and Delhi fringe localities. The mosque plays a central role in the spiritual life of the local Muslim community, hosting the five daily Salah (prayers) and the weekly Jumuʿah (Friday congregational prayer). Noor-e-Ilahi Masjid is also a focal point for larger gatherings during significant Islamic occasions such as Ramadan and the Eid festivals, when devotees come together for communal prayers and festivities. While detailed historical records about the mosque’s founding and architectural history are not widely published, its strong presence in community directories and positive local reviews reflect the mosque’s active use and importance in everyday religious life. The mosque’s design typically includes a prayer hall oriented towards the qibla (direction of Mecca) and an open courtyard space to accommodate larger congregations — features common to many community mosques in North India. Beyond ritual worship, mosques like Noor-e-Ilahi Masjid often serve as social centres where neighbours meet, exchange greetings during festivals, and foster community interaction, strengthening the social fabric of the Hindan Vihar neighbourhood.
