Mosques

Uruma, a city on Okinawa Island, offers a growing network of prayer spaces for Muslims. Based on available mapped records, there are at least 11 listed mosques and prayer rooms within a 50 km radius, with several located directly in Uruma. The city itself is home to Ishikawa Masjid (1 Chome-44-24 Ishikawa) and Masjid Seiko Rokaiya Noor Okinawa Islamic Center (1185-2 Ishikawa), both situated in the Ishikawa district. These provide convenient options for residents and visitors in that area. The presence of multiple listings for Ishikawa Masjid and Nishihara Masjid suggests these are well-known facilities, though exact details should be verified directly.

Beyond Uruma, prayer places are also established in nearby towns. In Nishihara, the Okinawa Masjid (Okinawa Islamic Culture Center) and Nishihara Masjid are located on Uehara street, while Okinawa first Mosque shares the same address. These are approximately 17–18 km from central Uruma. In Kitanakagusuku, the AEON MALL Okinawa Rycom Mosque offers a prayer space within a major shopping complex, about 9 km away. This distribution shows that Muslims in the region have access to prayer facilities across several communes, with a concentration in the Ishikawa area of Uruma and the Uehara area of Nishihara.

For Muslims living in or visiting Uruma, the mapped data indicates that the Ishikawa district is a key area for mosque presence. The city's location on Okinawa Island means that prayer places are spread across a relatively small geographic area, making them accessible by car or public transport. New arrivals, students, workers, and families can find listed mosques in Uruma itself and in neighboring Nishihara and Kitanakagusuku. While this overview is based on available records, it is always advisable to confirm addresses, opening hours, and services directly with each mosque, as details may change.

Always confirm mosque addresses, opening hours, and services directly, as details may change. The listings include multiple entries for some mosques (e.g., Ishikawa Masjid, Nishihara Masjid) – verify which location is correct. Contact fields may be available for some mosques; use them to check prayer times, Jumu'ah, and facilities. Distances are approximate; plan your route accordingly.
