Indo Islamic Heritage
Tumandaar Masjid is a well-visited neighbourhood congregational mosque in Katra area of Jhanjhari Block, Gonda. It serves as a local centre for daily Islamic prayer, Friday (Jumuʿah) services, and community gatherings among residents of the broader Katra–Gonda Road neighbourhood.
Nestled along Katra – Gonda Road in the Jhanjhari Block of Gonda city, Tumandaar Masjid stands as an active and welcoming place of worship for Muslims in the surrounding residential and commercial areas. The name Tumandaar often historically refers to a person of responsibility or authority, suggesting the mosque’s possible roots in community leadership or local patronage. Functioning as a community congregational mosque, Tumandaar Masjid facilitates the five daily Salah (prayers) — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — where worshippers come together in regular devotion. The mosque’s role becomes especially central on Fridays, when the Jumuʿah prayer is held with a khutbah (sermon) that reinforces religious teachings and community cohesion.
