The Jama Masjid is a Friday mosque, located in Mominpura, Nagpur, in the state of Maharashtra, India. The mosque is approximately 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) east of Nagpur Railway Station.

The mosque was built in 1960, has four minarets, a garden to the north, and a vehicle parking area to the south. Renovations to the mosque were completed in 2019, following a lightning strike to its 39-metre (128 ft) minarets some time ago.
