Summary

Description
English: Masjid al-Moazzam, renovated in 1999 by Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin, the 52nd Da'i al-Mutlaq of the Dawoodi Bohra, stands out as an outstanding example of the Neo-Fatimid architecture that flourished during his reign. His son and successor, Syedna Muffadal Saifuddin, the 53rd Dai al-Mutlaq, led the project and saw to its completion. The adjoining Aljamea-tus-Saifiyah campus, and the two Mausoleums along with the residences of the former Dua't Mutlaqins, make this Masjid-Jamea complex the single most important educational and cultural hub of the Bohra community.
