Taj ul Masjid, meaning Crown of Mosques, is one of the largest mosques in India and a defining landmark of Bhopal city. Commissioned in 1868 by Shah Jahan Begum, the third Nawab Begum of Bhopal, and completed in 1971, the mosque reflects the grand Islamic heritage that shapes the identity of the Bhopal capital. For those asking Bhopal in which district, this monumental structure stands in Bhopal district and dominates the skyline of the historic old quarters. Built in pink sandstone, it features towering minarets, an expansive courtyard that can hold around 175,000 worshippers and one of the largest pulpits of its kind in South Asia. Each year, the Aalami Tablighi Ijtima gathers here, drawing over a million participants from around the world and reinforcing the spiritual significance of the Bhopal city name in Islamic scholarship.

The vast main prayer hall, crowned by 27 domes and adorned with intricate Persian calligraphy, ranks among the largest indoor mosque spaces in India.
