Further details regarding nomination forms and the election process will be shared with the community in the coming days, in shā’Allāh. We warmly encourage all eligible members to participate – whether by standing for election, casting their vote, or attending the AGM to hear about the work of your Association over the past year.

This is a blessed opportunity for our community to come together, reflect on what we have achieved by the Mercy of Allāh ﷻ, and shape the path forward for KMWA.

Wassalāmu ʿAlaikum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْم

Eid is a celebration for the whole Ummah – and that includes our youngest members.

We are pleased to announce that KMWA has lifted the previous restriction on children aged 5 and under attending Eid prayers. All children are now warmly and wholeheartedly welcome to join their families at Gillingham Mosque for Eid Salah, insha’Allah.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “He is not one of us who does not show mercy to our young ones.”
Our children are the future of this community and there is no more fitting place for them than standing alongside their families in the house of Allah ﷻ on the most joyful days of the Islamic calendar.

We ask parents to keep little ones close and to be mindful of other worshippers during prayers, but let there be no doubt – your children belong here, and we look forward to celebrating Eid together as one community, young and old.

May Allah ﷻ bless our children, grant them love for the Masjid from an early age, and unite our community in joy this Eid.

عِيدٌ مُبَارَكٌ – Eid Mubarak in advance to you all 🌙

Assalāmu ʿAlaikum wa Rahmatullāhi wa Barakātuh, dear brothers and sisters,
