Nizamuddin Markaz (India)

Nizamuddin Markaz, also known as the Markaz or Jamaat-e-Islami Hind, is a large religious gathering and community center located in New Delhi, India. It serves as a place for Islamic teachings, prayer, and educational activities. The facility hosts events, seminars, and spiritual programs for Muslims and the broader community. It gained international attention in April 2020 when a large congregation gathered during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to a significant outbreak of the virus in India. The Markaz is an important religious and cultural hub for many Muslims in India, emphasizing community service, religious education, and spiritual development.
