What we offer.

Our programmes combine regular religious teaching, offered in English, Arabic and Bengali, with practical support for the everyday concerns of our community.

Religious advice & counselling

The Centre gives Muslims somewhere to turn for help and advice in all aspects of life. We have access to Imams trained to advise and counsel on the concerns of individuals in our community, including:

  • Cultural and educational challenges
  • Bereavement
  • Mediation
  • Social problems

Lectures & training

We offer regular Tafsir of the Qur’an in English and Bengali, alongside halaqahs on a range of topics that are open to all age groups.

We also run programmes in leadership and social cohesion, as well as training on issues related to Fiqh.

Marriage

Marriage is a great joy and the building block of successful family life, which is where lasting change in society begins. The Centre facilitates the solemnisation of the Islamic contract of marriage.

Newly married couples receive a certificate of Nikah confirming they have been married according to Islamic Shariah law.

Your Nikah can be conducted in English, Arabic, Bengali, Urdu or Hindi.

Ramadan: Taraweeh & the last 10 nights

Every year during Ramadan, the Centre holds Taraweeh prayers for the community.

During the last 10 nights, we also hold extra lessons after Tahajjud, so that those staying up in worship can benefit from teaching and reminders in these blessed nights. Everyone is welcome.
