How this list works
Places come from OpenStreetMap, where volunteers map mosques and tag them as Shia or name them imambargah, imambara, husainiya or Shia centre. We recognise those names in English, Urdu, Arabic and Persian. Many Shia centres are not mapped yet: if yours is missing, add it to OpenStreetMap or search Google Maps from this page.

Questions about imambargahs and Shia mosques
What is an imambargah?
An imambargah (also imambara or imambarah) is a Shia congregation hall for majalis (gatherings of remembrance), especially in Muharram, and often for daily prayers too. It is the South Asian name; in Arabic-speaking countries the same kind of place is called a husainiya (حسينية), and in Europe, North America and Australia it is often a Shia mosque or Shia centre.
What is the difference between an imambargah and a mosque?
A mosque (masjid) is built for the five daily prayers and the Friday prayer. An imambargah is built mainly for majalis and mourning for Imam Husain, especially in Muharram and Safar; many also hold congregational prayers. On this site both are marked in gold (Fiqh Jafaria); the mark with a pennant is an imambargah or husainiya, and green is an ordinary mosque.
Which prayer times do imambargahs follow?
Most follow Fiqh Jafaria: Maghrib once the redness in the east has gone, about 10–20 minutes after sunset, and Fajr and Isha from the Qum (Leva Institute) angles. Congregation times are set by each imambargah, so check with them.
