Ali Masjid msjd shryf - Mosque in Srinagar - Budgam, India

I recently visited this masjid and was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment I entered, I felt a sense of peace and tranquility The Friday Jummah prayer was a wonderful experience, with a knowledgeable imam delivering a thought-provoking sermon. Overall, I highly recommend this masjid to anyone looking for a peaceful and welcoming environment to worship and connect with others.

Firstly, I would like to clarify that the correct name of the mosque is "Ali Masjid" and not "Aali Masjid (named after Sultan Ali Shah) maybe* The Ali Mosque is a must-visit for anyone interested in Islamic architecture and kashmiri history. Its stunning beauty and rich cultural heritage make it a truly unique and unforgettable destination. Whether you are a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply looking for a peaceful place to pray, the Ali Mosque is definitely worth a visit Ali Mosque, an architectural marvel, graces the stunning city of Srinagar in the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. Its construction dates back to 1471 A.D. during the reign of Sultan Hassan Shah, a ruler of the Shamiri dynasty, who commissioned the magnificent structure. This mosque, nestled within the premises of Eidgah Srinagar, stands proud as the largest existing mosque in the area, exhibiting grandeur and opulence in every corner. The Ali Masjid, a magnificent mosque located in Srinagar, has not only served as a divine place of worship but also stood as a prominent platform for the freedom struggle during the Dogra rule in the early part of the 20th century. Its walls have witnessed the heroic struggle of many valiant souls fighting for their rights and freedom, further cementing the mosque's historical significance. Constructed in 1395 by Sultan Ali Shah, the seventh Sultan of Kashmir and elder brother of Zainul Abideen, the mosque stands tall as a symbol of excellence and grandeur. Mir Ali Shah Hamdani is believed to have bought the land and generously bestowed it upon Ali Shah, further adding to the mosque's unique history. However, as per the accounts of some historians, the mosque was erected in 1471 by Sultan Hassan Shah, as mentioned on the history board outside the mosque. Despite the differing views, there is no denying that the Ali Masjid has been an integral part of Kashmir's cultural and religious heritage, standing as a testament to the region's rich and diverse history.
