What kind of place of worship is Al Noor Mosque?

The map calls it a Sunni mosque or musalla. That is the mapper’s tag, not this site’s own survey.

Source: OpenStreetMap way/102298567 (ODbL). A directory, not a census of faith: name, religion, denomination and address are the tags OpenStreetMap’s mappers give each place, and a tag the map does not carry stays unstated here rather than guessed from a name. A listing is a lead, not a claim, it says a place of worship is mapped on this ground, not that a congregation meets there this week. Coordinates pin the building as the map draws it.
