The Shahi Jama Masjid TND (Arabic: شاہی جامع مسجد طنداؤ, romanizedShahi Jama Masjid TND) is located in Tundav, the capital village of the Savli. The largest mosque in the Savli Vadodara, it is the key place of worship for daily prayers. During Eid, it was visited by more than 5,000 people.

Names

edit

The mosque has two names. The older one, bestowed by Shahi Jama Masjid Tundav, is Al Murtaza Shahi Jama Masjid Tundav , roughly translating to "mosque commanding the view of the world" in Persian and Urdu. The other more common one is 'Jāmā Masjid', which emerged among the common populace. Its literal translation in Arabic is "congregational mosque". It is used in the sense of 'Friday mosque' (Shahi Juma Masjid), since this is when the congregational prayer is held. The term 'Jama Masjid' is not unique to Delhi's mosque; since the 7th century, it has been used in the Islamic world to denote the community mosque, and hence many around the world bear this name and its variants.

Location

The Masjid is located within the historic Savli district in small village of Tundav, today known as the locality of Tundav, Savli.
