Mawai Masjid is a neighbourhood congregational mosque situated in Vijay Nagar, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh 201009, India. It serves as an active centre of worship where the local Muslim community gathers for the five daily prayers and the weekly Friday (Jumuʿah) congregational prayer.
Mawai Masjid in Vijay Nagar functions as an important spiritual and community hub for residents of this well-developed residential locality in Ghaziabad. The mosque provides dedicated space for the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — allowing worshippers to offer congregational prayers throughout the day. On Fridays, the mosque hosts the Jumuʿah prayer, which includes a sermon (khutbah) followed by collective prayer. This weekly gathering attracts a larger congregation from Vijay Nagar and surrounding neighbourhoods, strengthening community ties. During the holy month of Ramadan, the mosque becomes particularly vibrant with increased participation in Taraweeh prayers and Quran recitation. It also serves as a focal gathering point during Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, reinforcing its dual role as both a religious and social centre.
