Mosque Seeking Approval For Former Hindu Temple Site On South Middlebush Road

November 19, 2025 Development, Religion, Zoning Board

ARTIST’S RENDERING – The Tawheed Dawah Center is looking to change the approved building design and get permission for a more intense use than was approved for its predecessor.

The Zoning Board of Adjustment is set to hear on November 20 an application for a 19,000-square-foot mosque targeted for a South Middlebush Road parcel that had previously been approved for a Hindu temple.

The new owners of the approximately 16-acre site adjacent to Snyder’s Farm, Tawheed Dawah Center, are looking for approval of a new building design and a more intensive use than was granted for the Hindu temple.
