NEW MASJID PROJECT – IMPORTANT UPDATES!

Dear elders, brothers, and sisters,
We hope you are all well and in the best of Imaan.

Alhamdhulillah, as of Sunday, 7 December 2025, the rebuilding of our Masjid Hall — along with two new floors — has officially begun!
With your generous donations, we have been able to start the project. We are still in need of further funds to complete everything, and we are hopeful that with your continued support the work will progress smoothly, Insha’Allah.

While the Masjid Hall is under construction, there will be a few temporary changes. Please take note of the following:

🕌 Namaz

All daily prayers will take place in the rear hall at the usual times.

Jumma Namaz will also be at the usual time. The Jamaat will be held in the back hall, with the upstairs classrooms and top floor available if more space is needed.

🚿 Wudhu

Wudhu and toilet facilities will continue as normal and are not affected.

📚 Madrassah

Madrassah classes will continue as usual with no changes to timings.

⚰️ Janaza

Janazas can still take place, but please speak to the committee beforehand, especially if a large turnout is expected.

🤲 Taaziyat / Dua Gatherings

Women’s side: No major changes, but an alternative entrance will be used.

Men’s side: The usual hall is now being used for Namaz, so it won’t be available. The double classroom upstairs may be used instead. If you expect many attendees, please consult the committee before arranging.

💍 Nikah

Nikah ceremonies will continue following the normal process.

🌙 Ramadhan Arrangements

Taraweeh: We will still perform 20 rakaats with full Qur’an Khatam. The top hall will be used—similar in size to the old Jamaat Khana, if not bigger.

Iftari: Our usual collective Iftari in the back hall won’t be possible this year. Instead, we’ll use the double classroom upstairs (since Madrassah will be closed during Ramadhan). Please note it must be cleaned promptly as it will be needed for the additional Taraweeh Jamaat and Khatam.

We appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support throughout this exciting new chapter for our Masjid. May Allah reward everyone abundantly and make this project a source of blessing for the entire community.

Jazakumullahu Khairan.

help us complete our masjid -
build a legacy that lasts forever!

By the grace and blessings of Allah (swt), we have embarked on a major project to rebuild the main Masjid Hall and add two additional floors above it. This long-awaited upgrade has started and will complete the Masjid and permanently resolve issues such as leaks, while providing beautiful, modern, and comfortable facilities for everyone. This includes a dedicated women's Taaziyat/Dua area and improved Madrassah spaces.

The architects drawings - featuring before-and-after visuals of the Masjid - are available to view at the top of this page.

Collections/donations are still active for the the new Masjid project. We still require an estimated £475k for which every contribution is a priceless Sadaqah-e-Jaariya, continuing to benefit you long after you leave this world. You may donate on behalf of yourself, your family, or a loved one who has passed away, or both.

Please speak to the committee to donate or you can donate via the card terminal which is located inside the Masjid entrance, or online via;

Islam is so much more than worship and visiting the Masjid—though these acts, especially the obligatory ones (Fardh), are essential. Islam is a complete way of life that encourages compassion, community, and the upliftment of humanity. One of the beautiful ways this is expressed is through charity (Sadaqah).

Sadaqah isn’t only about giving money, even though financial contributions help support those in need, maintain mosques and madrassahs, and provide relief around the world. Charity also shows up in the small, everyday acts of kindness we often take for granted: helping the elderly with their needs, clearing a path for others, being gentle with children, picking up litter, offering a smile, showing good character, opening a door, or giving someone the right of way. All of these are forms of charity in Islam.

The most beloved charity is the kind that continues to benefit people long after it’s given. This includes building a well that provides clean water, supporting a Masjid or Madrassah that nurtures young Muslims, funding a hospital or orphanage, and any effort that keeps serving the community over time. Among the greatest of these ongoing charities (Sadaqah-e-Jaariyah) is teaching our children about Islam (Dheen). This not only brings continuous reward but is also considered one of the best forms of voluntary worship (Nafl Ibaadat).

Alhamdhulillah, we have grown and achieved so much over the years, and that progress is thanks to the generosity and open hearts of our community. Their contributions continue to bring daily reward, as every donation supports the Masjid and Madrassah—places where people pray, learn, and benefit every single day.
