Mosques

Numazu, a coastal city in Shizuoka Prefecture, is home to a small but accessible Muslim community. While the city itself does not have a listed mosque, several prayer places are available within a 50 km radius, primarily in neighboring cities. The closest options are Fuji Mosque and Fuji masjid, both located at 2561-68 Nakazato in Fuji City, about 12 km away. These two listings likely refer to the same mosque, providing a dedicated space for daily prayers and Jumu'ah. Additionally, a prayer room is available at Gotemba Premium Outlets (1312 Fukasawa, Gotemba), approximately 25 km from Numazu, offering a convenient spot for shoppers and travelers.

Further afield, the city of Shizuoka hosts Masjid Shizuoka and the shizuoka muslim assosiation mushola, both in the Suruga Ward area (around 49 km). In the Yamanashi Prefecture, Fujikawaguchiko Masjid and a prayer room near Saiko Lake serve the Fuji Five Lakes region, about 46-48 km away. Tokai Masjid in Hadano, Kanagawa Prefecture, is another option at 47.5 km. These mapped listings indicate that while Numazu lacks a permanent mosque, the surrounding areas—particularly Fuji, Gotemba, and Shizuoka—have established prayer facilities for Muslims living in or visiting the region.

For Muslims in Numazu, the practical reality involves traveling to nearby cities for congregational prayers. The concentration of prayer places in Fuji (two listings at the same address) and Shizuoka (two locations) suggests these are key hubs for the Muslim community in eastern Shizuoka. The Gotemba Premium Outlets prayer room is a notable facility for those on the go. As the Muslim population grows, there may be future developments, but currently, the listed prayer places are spread across several cities, requiring planning for regular attendance. New arrivals, students, and families should verify opening hours and contact details directly with each mosque.

All listed prayer places are based on available mapped records. Distances from Numazu range from 12 km (Fuji Mosque) to 49 km (Shizuoka). Addresses are provided for each location; however, it is recommended to confirm opening hours, prayer times, and accessibility by contacting the mosque directly. Some listings may have limited facilities or specific access requirements.
