Auliya Masjid — also referred to locally as the Ahle Sunnat Mosque — is a well-established community mosque in the Bulandshahr Road Industrial Area of Ghaziabad. Functioning as a central place of worship for neighbourhood residents, it provides space where Muslims come together to perform the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — in congregation. On Fridays, the mosque hosts the Jumuʿah prayer, which brings a larger congregation together for a sermon (khutbah) followed by the congregational prayer — an important weekly ritual in the Islamic calendar. Beyond regular prayer services, mosques like Auliya Masjid also play a role in community life during significant Islamic observances such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha, when extended prayers and communal gatherings foster spiritual unity and shared celebration. The mosque’s architecture prioritises practicality and ease of access for worshippers: a prayer hall oriented towards the qibla (direction of Mecca), open or semi-covered spaces for congregational use, and facilities to support ritual wudu (ablutions). Though not documented in formal historical registers, its positive local ratings reflect its active use and respected place in the everyday religious life of the surrounding community.
