About Help us build the first fit-for-purpose mosque in Aberdeen, the furthest north in the UK. We are a registered Charity No SC044230 www.masjidalhikmah.org.uk Story A new home for our diverse Muslim community Masjid Alhikmah answers the need for a dynamic, active masjid and community centre in Aberdeen. The complex will provide much-needed large space for congregational prayers, facilities for women, education for children and a funeral service. Our new centre was the vision of a group of individuals who came together to create a solution for Aberdeen’s current challenges, forming a project team and establishing a new charity to this result. As much as building with bricks and mortar, we want to create a distinctive place that has an equal attitude and works in collaboration with other groups, stakeholders and individuals. We feel this ‘Alhikmah’ – this wisdom – is at the heart of our motivation to be a positive and inclusive community in Aberdeen. The origins of our name Our name was the inspiration of our team and is very special to us because it encapsulates our vision: Masjid is Arabic for place of congregational worship; Alhikmah is Arabic for wisdom. The creation of our name is an example of the collaborative approach we take. Serving Aberdeen’s Muslim population Currently, around 4,000 Muslims live in Aberdeen and the surrounding area. Most of the local Muslim community are Scottish nationals whose families have lived here for generations and have long been enriching the local community and contributing to the economy by running many businesses, including restaurants and convenience stores. …and Muslim visitors to the region The Muslim population in Aberdeen is unusually diverse with the majority of people passing through the region, so in the Muslim community people come from a broad variety of destinations including the Middle East, Asia and Africa. These transient families, individuals, students and professionals stay here for an average of 5 years, studying at the universities and working in medicine or for the oil and gas industry.
