      History


      After visiting a small 25-year-old mosque in 2019, Nadi businessman, Bobby Khan, pledged funds for construction of new mosque. Opened on 10 April 2021 at a cost of $1 million, the project took approximately 18 months to complete. The mosque was named after Khan's mother, Hanifa Begum. The land where the mosque stands today was donated and built by Western Home Limited. The opening ceremony was officiated by Faiyaz Koya, the Minister for Commerce, Trade, Tourism and Transport.
