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 🌙

🕌 Alhamdulillah – New Carpets at Gillingham Mosque

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْم

We are delighted to share that Gillingham Mosque has been blessed with brand new carpets, Alhamdulillah.

This project was made possible entirely through the generosity of our community. Every contribution -whether given at Jummah, by bank transfer, or quietly and anonymously -came together to make this a reality. May Allah ﷻ accept from each and every one of you and reward you abundantly in this life and the next.

A heartfelt Jazākum Allāhu Khayran to all our donors, volunteers, and community members who supported this initiative. You are the heart of this Masjid.

Fresh carpets beneath our feet as we stand before Allah ﷻ in prayer – may this be more than just a renovation. May it be a symbol of renewal, unity and positive change for KMWA and our community. We begin this new chapter with gratitude, with hope, and with a firm commitment to continuing to improve and serve our community in the best way possible, insha’Allah.

The doors of Gillingham Mosque are open. Come, pray, and feel at home.

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, dear brothers and sisters,

Alhamdulillah, by the grace and mercy of Allah, we were blessed to raise £2,555 total this Friday!
(£2290 New Masjid , £265 Masjid)

A heartfelt Jazakum Allahu Khayran to each and every one of you for your generosity, kindness, and unwavering support.

As I mentioned on Friday KEY SHORT TERM PRIORITIES ARE :

1. Get the financial Audit completed
2. ⁠Maintenance and upkeep of the current masjid building
3. ⁠Preparations for Ramadhan
4. ⁠Continuing Fund Raising for the New masjid

There’s a lot more but thats for another time !

As I settle down and listen to the communities voice we will do a lot more In Shaa Allah together and have it all synced up with a vision !

None of that happens without actions and responsible people driving those actions !

As I asked on Friday and I ask again here if you are a a builder, plumber, lawyer, accountant, company professional or any experienced person or any Volunteer who maybe able to help in any capacity and can give your time and most importantly a consistent action driven commitment to the benefit of the masjid to progress it .
WE NEED YOU AND YOUR IDEAS SO COME FORWARD WITH SOLUTIONS NOT JUST COMPLAINTS !

I will listen to everyone and take on board what we can to move forward in a good way together with the community and the Board of Trustees (BOT) and Coordinators إن شاء الله

Please introduce yourself to me ,
I would love to hear from you !

Jazāk Allāhu Khayran.

May Allah fill your lives with barakah, accept your efforts, and reward you with the very best in this world and the Hereafter.

آمِيْنُ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِيْن
