Mosques

Kozhikode, a historic city on the Malabar Coast, is home to a vibrant Muslim community with a network of prayer places extending into surrounding towns and villages. Based on available mapped records, there are 20 listed mosques within a 50 km radius of the city center. While the immediate city of Kozhikode itself has limited listed prayer places in this dataset, the surrounding areas—particularly Manjeri, Malappuram, and Vatakara—show a strong presence of masjids, reflecting the deep-rooted Islamic heritage of the region.

Among the listed mosques, several are located in Manjeri, a town about 40 km from Kozhikode. Notable examples include Manjeri Central Juma Masjid on Pandikkad Road opposite the Old Bus Stand, and Manjeri Hikamiyya Town Sunni Masjid in Kuthukal. Other prayer places in Manjeri include Pullur Juma Masjid on Areekode-Manjeri Road, Noor Juma Masjid on SH71, and Islahi Campus - Salafi Masjid in Karuvambram. In Malappuram, mosques such as Kattungal Jum'a Masjid on Tirur-Malappuram-Manjeri Road and Alathurpadi Dars & Juma Masjid in Melmuri serve the local community. Further north, Vatakara hosts several masjids including Adakkatheru Juma Masjid on Memunda Road, Edodi Juma Masjid, and Salafi Masjid in Narayana Nagar.

Other listed prayer places are spread across smaller localities like Pullara, Anakkayam, Payyanad, and Mayannur, indicating that the Muslim population is well-served by mosques in both urban and rural settings. For Muslims living in or visiting Kozhikode, these listed mosques provide accessible options for daily prayers, especially in the Manjeri and Malappuram sectors. The data reflects a region where Islamic practice is deeply integrated into community life, with mosques often located on main roads and in residential areas.

The listed mosques are based on available mapped records and may not represent all prayer places in the area. Distances from Kozhikode city center range from 29 km to 47 km.
