The Muhammad bin Abdullah Masjid or Ayodhya Mosque is a mosque being constructed in Dhannipur, Ayodhya district, Uttar Pradesh, at a site designated by the Supreme Court of India following its verdict on the Ayodhya dispute case.[2][3]
The construction of the Mosque and associated complex is managed by the Indo-Islamic Cultural Foundation (IICF) trust.[4][5] The Dhannipur Mosque is almost 22 km away from the Ram Mandir, Ayodhya,[6] the former site of its predecessor, the Babri Masjid.
The construction began on 26 January 2021.[4] The mosque was officially named as Ahmadullah Shah Mosque, as an honour to the leader of Indian Independence war of 1857, Maulavi Ahmadullah Shah, but was later renamed as Muhammad bin Abdullah Masjid, after the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[7]
