Jama Masjid in Sanjay Nagar (Sector 23) is one of the well-known community mosques in the urban area of Ghaziabad. Designed to serve the spiritual needs of local residents, it offers space for the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — and especially for the weekly Jumuʿah service, an important weekly congregational prayer featuring a sermon (khutbah) followed by collective worship. Neighbourhood mosques like this not only facilitate ritual worship but also act as centres of community interaction and support. During major Islamic festivals such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha, the mosque becomes particularly vibrant as larger congregations gather for special prayers and community fellowship. Although Jama Masjid in Sanjay Nagar is not featured in formal historical registers or heritage listings, its sustained use and high local ratings reflect its respected presence in everyday religious life. The mosque’s layout typically emphasises functionality — a prayer hall oriented towards the qibla (direction of Mecca), open areas for congregational attendance, and necessary facilities for ritual ablutions (wudu).
