Dear Gillingham Mosque Community Members,

Peace and blessings be upon you all!

There will be a 5th Eid Jamaat at 11am at Gillingham Mosque.

We hope this message finds you and your families in good health and high spirits during this auspicious occasion of Eid.

We are truly grateful for the overwhelming response and enthusiasm we have received from our community members to attend the Eid prayers at Gillingham Mosque. As a result of the unprecedented numbers arriving for the 10am prayer, we have decided to organize an additional 5th Eid Jamaat at 11am to accommodate everyone comfortably and safely.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wo barakatuhu.

The blessed month of Ramadan has swiftly passed, leaving behind cherished memories and spiritual growth. As we bid farewell with a heavy heart, we also embrace the joy and festivity of Eid, celebrating the unity and blessings it brings.

There will be four Jamaat in Gillingham Masjid.
7am, 8am, 9am, 10am

It is anticipated that a short Bayaan will take place beforehand, and then the Salaat at the above times followed by the Khutba.

The Masjid will be very busy so please help us by arriving in good time and assisting with making space for as many worshippers as possible.

There is only limited space for ladies in each Jamaat and so again arrive on time to avoid disappointment.

Please park sensibly and allow plenty of time for finding a space. Do not block residents in their driveways and bear in mind that the traffic wardens will be out in force.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wo barakatuhu.

There will be 4 Jamaat for Salaat ul Eid on Saturday 9th July in shah Allah.

Both men and women can attend any of the Salaat.

Please be punctual to enable yourself to find adequate parking and therefore avoid missing the Salaat and / or the Bayaan.

Please do your Wudu at home beforehand if you can as toilet facilities are limited for the large numbers of anticipated people.

Please be considerate to other people and the neighbours of the Masjid when entering and leaving the Masjid, for example by not blocking the entrance and the pavements outside, and also assist your brother or sister to find a prayer space if space becomes very limited during any of the Salaat.

Please donate as generously as you can to the building of the new Masjid.

Alhamdulillah, on Wednesday 4th May 2022, the sisters’ celebrated Eid with a coffee morning at KMWA Gillingham mosque. The turnout was great with some new and other familiar faces enjoying tea/coffee and cakes. The occasion was also a much-needed opportunity to reconnect in person after the COVID pandemic.

We hope to continue to offer this wonderful opportunity on a regular basis for sisters and their children on Wednesdays from 10:30-12:30 at Gillingham mosque (Canterbury Street), InshaAllah.
