While precise archival records or official historical documentation regarding the year of its foundation are not publicly available, the mosque is understood to have developed in the latter part of the 20th century or early 21st century to meet the spiritual needs of the local Ahl-e-Hadees community. As with many community mosques in Indian towns and cities, its origin is rooted in community initiative rather than imperial or state patronage. The Ahl-e-Hadees movement itself emphasizes a return to the fundamentals of Islamic teaching based on the Qur’an and Hadith, and mosques affiliated with this school often focus on simplicity and direct engagement with scripture.  The mosque’s structure reflects the functional characteristics typical of Ahl-e-Hadees worship spaces — a broad prayer hall facing the Qibla (direction of Mecca), facilities for ablution (Wudu), and open areas that accommodate the faithful during peak prayer times such as on Fridays and during Ramadan. Regular worshippers gather for the five daily prayers (Salat), and the mosque plays an important role during festive occasions in the Islamic calendar such as Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha. Community members also value the mosque for its educational and social atmosphere, where sermons and teachings reinforce religious learning.
