Based on available mapped records, the city itself is home to MASJID UN NOOR Ashikaga Masjid, located at 1349-6 Yamashitacho, approximately 4.8 km from the city center. This mosque serves as a central point for Muslims in Ashikaga, providing a place for daily prayers and community gatherings. The surrounding areas, including the nearby cities of Ota, Sano, and Kiryu, also host several mosques, extending the prayer-place coverage across the region.

Within a 50 km radius of Ashikaga, there are 20 listed mosques and prayer rooms, reflecting a dispersed but accessible network. Notable among these are Ota Masjid (7.8 km) in Ota, Gunma, and Sano Masjid (12.2 km) in Sano, Tochigi. Further afield, mosques such as Quba Mosque in Tatebayashi (12.6 km) and Kiryu Masjid (13.6 km) in Kiryu, Gunma, provide additional options for worshippers. The addresses indicate that prayer places are established in areas like Isesaki, Gyoda, and Hanyu in Saitama, as well as in Koga and Yuki in Ibaraki, showing a broad implantation across the northern Kanto region.

For Muslims living in or visiting Ashikaga, the available mapped data suggests that while the city has one primary mosque, the surrounding towns and cities offer numerous alternatives within a short drive. This network is particularly useful for those traveling or residing in the Tochigi-Gunma-Saitama border area. The presence of mosques in both urban centers like Ota and more rural settings like Tatebayashi indicates that the Muslim community is spread across various localities. It is advisable to verify addresses and contact details directly, as some mosques may have specific prayer schedules or facilities not listed here.
