Indo Islamic Heritage
Masjid E Qasim is a neighbourhood congregational mosque located in Gaur City 2 (Block B2), Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh 201016, India. It functions as an active centre of worship where the local Muslim community gathers for the five daily prayers and the weekly Friday (Jumuʿah) congregational prayer.
Masjid E Qasim in Gaur City 2 is a well-used community mosque serving the spiritual needs of residents in this modern residential enclave of Ghaziabad. Positioned within the planned Gaur City 2 township, the mosque provides a welcoming space for the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — enabling neighbours to come together in daily worship. On Fridays, Masjid E Qasim hosts the Jumuʿah prayer, a weekly congregational service accompanied by a sermon (khutbah) and drawing larger gatherings from across the locality. Neighbourhood mosques like Masjid E Qasim often serve as focal points for community interaction and cultural life beyond formal prayer times. They become especially active during significant Islamic occasions such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha, when extended prayers and celebrations bring families and neighbours together. The mosque’s design prioritises functionality and accessibility: prayer spaces oriented toward the qibla (direction of Mecca), open or sheltered areas to accommodate congregants, and arrangements for wudu (ritual ablutions). While it does not appear in formal historical registries, strong local community ratings reflect its respected role within the everyday religious life of Gaur City 2’s residents.
