Sunni Jamia Masjid Sohanda is a mosque located in Sohanda village (Sohanda Po), Jatwal area, in Samba district, Jammu and Kashmir (PIN 184121, India). It is a place of worship for the local Muslim community, following the Sunni tradition and serving the spiritual needs of residents of Sohanda and neighbouring villages. While there are no widely available published records online that provide the exact year of establishment or a detailed historical background for this specific mosque, neighbourhood mosques in Samba typically develop organically with the growth of the local settlement and become key centres for the five daily prayers, Jummah (Friday) congregational prayers, and gatherings for Islamic festivals such as Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. The mosque is noted locally for its religious activities and open courtyard design; community members also refer to its colourful minar(s) — typical features in local masjid architecture — which stand prominently and help identify the mosque in the village.
