Intro
The 1st Khalifa, Maulvi Noorudin had this place of worship built. It was inaugurated on 23rd April 1910 by the Noorudin. On 14th March 1914, in the very same place of worship, Mirza Bashir ud din Mahmood was chosen as the second caliph of the Ahmadiyya Community. You can watch a video about herein, there have been many renovations, this place of worship was mostly abandoned and locked up from the 1940’s to 2000. Noorudin also had the Noor Hospital built. Noorudin also secured 25,000 rupees from the British Government for Talim ul Islam building complex. Zafrullah Khan tells us that Mirza Nasir Nawab was involved in securing funding for the Noor Mosque and hospital (see the ref in the below).

From 1913 to 1922, the annual Jalsa Salana’s were held at the Noor mosque (See ROR of Jan-1947). The ROR of Jan-1947 alleges that in 1922, the number of guests rose to 7000-8000 and thus, a new location was needed to hold the Jalsa. Thus, from 1922 onwards, a Pandal was prepared annaually in front of the T.I. Highschool (in the spacious open field outside of the city limits of Qadian). The ROR alleges that in 1945, 1944 and 1943, 34,000 people attended the Jalsa at Qadian, this would be during WW-2.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________“Nooruddin” by Muhammad Zafrullah Khan, 2nd edition, online edition, 2006.

This book seems to be a summary of the 4-5 books on the life of Nooruddin, those books remain in Urdu and will most likely never be translated, since they are soooo controversial. Finally, it is strange that Zafrullah Khan gives no reference for this data, anyhow, here is the relevant reference, see pages 201-202

“””The Ta‘limul Islam High School, Qadian was started in January 1898, and was making good
progress. The School and its hostel were both located in the town and were housed unpretentious sunbaked brick structures. In the very beginning of the Khilafat, need had been felt of erecting suitable spacious buildings for the school and hostel, together with a mosque outside the town. An area of fifty acres was acquired and the order of priority was laid down
as mosque, hostel and school. The mosque, named Masjid Nur, was built with funds acquired largely through the devoted efforts of Mir Nasir Nawab. In the first year of the Khilafat ten thousand rupees were collected for the hostel and a kiln was set up for baking bricks. Thirty thousand more rupees were needed for the hostel building. In May 1909, under the direction of Hadrat Khalifatul Masihra, an appeal for that amount was made to the community by Maulawi
Muhammad ‘Ali, and a committee composed of Sahibzada Mirza Bashir-ud-Din Mahmud Ahmadra, Dr. Sayyid Muhammad Husainra, Dr. Mirza Ya‘qub Baigra, Khawaja Kamal-ud-Din, Mutfi Muhammad Sadiqra, Shaikh Ya‘qub ‘Ali ‘Irfani and Maulawi Muhammad ‘Ali was appointed for the collection of funds. Hadrat Khalifatul Masihra made a personal contribution of six hundred rupees. In due course, the school building was also constructed, government
having made a grant-in-aid of twenty-five thousand rupees. Some time later a hospital was added through the continued efforts of Mir Nasir Nawab. It was named Nur Hospital. Another of his beneficent projects was the construction of a number of quarters for the indigent. In all this he was supported by Khalifatul Masih with prayers and financial contributions, and was held up by him as an example to others.””””
