Masjid Al-Jamia of Philadelphia, Sunni mosque in West Philadelphia, United States.
The mosque occupies a former theater building at 4228 Walnut Street, featuring Spanish Revival architecture with traditional Islamic design elements.
Founded in 1988 by Penn Muslims Students Association, the mosque transitioned from university ownership to the Shura Council of Masjid Al-Jamia in 2009.
The congregation reflects Philadelphia's diversity with members from African, South Asian, and North African Arab communities gathering for religious services.
The mosque conducts five daily prayers, Friday sermons, and maintains an Islamic school for children while offering educational programs for adults.
The building, originally the Commodore Theatre from 1928, maintained its Spanish Revival and Moorish architectural elements during its conversion to a mosque.
