Indo Islamic Heritage
Juma Masjid Mewatiyan is a prominent congregational mosque located in the Mewatiyan locality of Gonda, Uttar Pradesh 271001, India. It is one of the most well-frequented mosques in the area, known for its active role in community worship and social life.
Juma Masjid Mewatiyan stands as a focal point of Islamic worship and community gathering in the busy residential and market area of Mewatiyan near Purani Sabzi Mandi and adjacent to Furqania Madarsa in Gonda. The name “Juma Masjid” denotes that it functions as a Friday mosque — a central venue where the Jumuʿah prayer (Friday congregational prayer) is held each week, bringing together large numbers of worshippers from the local neighbourhood and adjoining streets. In addition to its role as a place for the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — Juma Masjid Mewatiyan is a vibrant centre for communal and spiritual life. The mosque often becomes a hub of activity during the holy month of Ramadan, when large gatherings for Taraweeh prayers, communal Iftar (breaking of the fast), and extended Quran recitation sessions are common.
