My very first visit to the visitor centre and the prayer room, which is very spacious and accessible. No one was praying when we went and I was able to take photos. A beehive is on the roof and honey will be sold in July and I am so looking forward to trying it. I’ve been to the hall downstairs for some events such as markets, fundraising etc, but it was nice to see other sections of the mosque.
Visiting the East London Mosque situated in Whitechapel, London, was an experience imbued with profound tranquility and aesthetic marvel. Despite its unassuming exterior, upon stepping inside, I was immediately enveloped in a sense of serenity, marveling at the grandeur of one of London's largest mosques. Its expansive interior exuded elegance, with meticulously designed prayer spaces catering to both brothers and sisters, ensuring ample room for congregants to engage in their devotions comfortably. The impeccable cleanliness of the facilities, notably the lavatories, underscored the mosque's commitment to fostering an environment conducive to spiritual reflection and reverence. Furthermore, the contemporary architectural design, coupled with the harmonious recitations led by the imam during prayers, evoked a profound sense of peace and contemplation. As I reflected on my visit, I couldn't help but appreciate the adage, "never judge a book by its cover," as the outward appearance of the mosque belied the splendor within. Indeed, while every mosque is considered the house of Allah, the East London Mosque has undoubtedly earned its place as a favored destination for worshippers. Should circumstances permit, I would eagerly make it my regular place of worship if residing in London. In offering guidance to prospective visitors, I must emphasize the practicality of utilizing public transportation, such as the underground tube or train, as navigating by car presents considerable challenges, including the scarcity of parking spaces and the likelihood of incurring fines or congestion charges. In conclusion, I express my gratitude for the opportunity to have visited this esteemed mosque, affirming my conviction that it stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of community and devotion within the Muslim faith. Alhamdulillah I'm grateful that I was able to visit this mosque in my lifetime.
Beautiful, Beautiful mosque near the heart of London at Whitechapel. Great interior and exterior with good space for both male and female prayer places. It's a short walk from the Tube station too. As a tourist it was great to see and pray there.
The mosque in London stands out as one of the largest in the city, impressively spacious and awe-inspiring, truly a sight to behold. The prayer area is expansive, allowing worshippers to comfortably gather for prayers. What's more, the ablution area is notably vast and meticulously maintained, exuding a sense of cleanliness and orderliness that enhances the spiritual experience. A particularly delightful touch is the lingering aroma of bakhoor, adding a pleasant sensory dimension to the ambiance. Overall, the combination of size, cleanliness, and aromatic atmosphere makes this mosque a standout destination for worshippers and visitors alike.
This is the biggest mosque in London, service is good. Facilities of wadu is good. Prayer for both man and woman. Women entrance at the rear of the mosque. They do burial service. Very organised. service they provide including every day social services like help with jobs and so on. This mosque can hold up to 1000’s of worshippers
This place is a lovely hub for everyone and everything. This masjid is a perfect place to come pray, do activities and stuff. There are renovating which I guess will take some time to complete. The masjid was very clean, water was warm and imam had beautiful recitation.
East London Mosque is one of the oldest Mosques in London, it’s probably one of the largest Mosque in UK. It’s constantly expanding to accommodate the need for Ummah. I love visiting and praying there. It opens its doors to non Muslim communities as well where thy can come and visit the mosque. The atmosphere is very welcoming and peaceful. I know personally few Imams who are amazing people. If you want to know Muslim and Islam, please visit the mosque. Don’t judge Islam by hearing from others.
East London Masjid has a special place in my heart. I've been going since I was a child when my dad used to take me there. Very fond memories. Every time I go East London, my journey can never be complete without going to East London Mosque to pray. There is something special about the place, to me, where I find it different from everywhere else. The community, the togetherness. When the Adhan goes off, you see everybody walking to the Masjid. Although it is quite a big mosque, inside you get the sense of coziness. That green carpet. So rich, so velvety. Every part of the Masjid is super clean. Recently, I really got to help the Masjid in the Ramadan Big Clean. Alhamdulillah, it was such a great experience. And if you are from the area, just watch on a Saturday and Sunday morning, early, when all the kids go to the Madrasa. It just looks and feels amazing. Sheikh Abdul Qayyum, who is the Head Imam at the Masjid, has always been there. Such a lovely and humble brother. Lots of different lectures and talks happen in the Masjid, which one will really find beneficial. And me being Bangladeshi, I really feel like I'm part of the community there. I love that part of Whitechapel. The shops, the market, especially having a nice hot tea after prayers with one piece of Mishti, it really does fulfil the journey. Massive respect to all our elderly uncles who have been going there from day one. I'm the beginning, the Masjid was only a small centre-like hall. And I'm grateful that the Masjid has a really good facility for sisters. As you know some Masjids don't have that space for women. East London Masjid really does emphasise and hosts space for the sisters to learn and pray. And provides really good connection for revert brothers and sisters to really amplify their learning. There was a bit of a gap for me in my adolescent years. I only used to go to East London for a Janazah on a, Friday mainly. But in the last 10 years of my life till now, I go to East London mosque frequently. And honestly, if I was living within the distance of reaching there, I would go every single prayer time. I recently went to Umrah with two of my companions. And now, at least once a month, we make a plan to read Jummah together at East London Masjid. It does somewhat bring back the memories of Medina. Obviously, it's not the same. But it's the togetherness of people. It really does have that filling atmosphere. And lastly, it's great to see the amazing work being put into the Masjid. Recently, there's been works going on. I'm writing this review in the month of Ramadan, 2024. And the Masjid main part of the hall has really opened up. Before, it was an offset rectangle on one side, and there was a back part of the Masjid, but now it's huge, like one big square. It's looking great. The works isn't finished yet. They have opened it for the Taraweeh prayers, and they'll close it after Ramadan, where they will really put the Masjid together. I can't wait. May Allah protect this beautiful house. And may He accept all our prayers and forgive all our sins.. Ameen
Easy to find and to also find your way around. As a female from overseas arriving alone it took a bit of asking around to find the sisters entrance and iftar hall. I’lll make a suggestion if possible to allow free wifi access easily available for persons from outside of the UK like myself.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
