Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh brothers and Sisters,

I have received many messages of support from the community .

It is very encouraging to know that I have your support and I thank you from the bottom of my heart to put that trust and confidence in me

The trustees have done the same to co-opt me in and I have stepped up to accept the trustee and chairs role .
This is a huge responsibility both legally and in terms of work to be done to plug the holes or deficiencies we all know about .

Of course there are many expectations and things to do but I will try to do them to the best of my ability and help move things forward in a good way In Shaa Allah .
Starting with this message , we will improve our communications and transparency .
We will also build a motivated and skilled team and processes and systems in place that addresses not just immediate needs but also the needs of the future when the New Masjid comes online إن شاء الله .

Please bear with me and the whole BOT team who have done a lot of work in the background .
We will In Shaa Allah address all things to bring stability and steer the ship in the right direction.

Some things are easy and others will take a bit of time to do things properly so please bear in mind.

If anyone has constructive suggestions for improvements or even a concern please help us to find solutions.

You can contact me or Br Irfan at any time to discuss further.
I will always listen to you and will make the time for the community إن شاء الله

Humbly request your Duas for successful outcomes

Jazāk Allāhu Khayran.

Ajaib,
Chair KMWA

The KMWA Management is pleased to formally announce the appointment of Mr. Zahoor Ahmed as the Second Imam of our Gillingham Mosque.

This appointment was made following the decision taken during the recent Trustee Meeting, in which the majority of trustees voted in favour of Mr. Ahmed‘s appointment.

Mr. Ahmed has officially accepted the position and signed the contract of employment. The agreement has been duly executed by both parties KMWA and Mr. Zahoor Ahmed. We wish to confirm that all contractual procedures have been completed in full compliance with UK Employment Law.

We kindly request all members of the community and trustees to extend a warm welcome to our new Second Imam, Mr. Zahoor Ahmed, and to offer him full support and cooperation as he commences his duties from Saturday (11/10/25).

KMWA Management would like to inform the community that the recruitment process for the First (English-speaking) Imam is still ongoing. Several candidates have been contacted and informally interviewed, and further discussions are in progress to ensure the selection of the most suitable individual who can effectively lead the community and fulfil all the requirements of the position.

Once again, we extend our sincere welcome to Mr. Zahoor Ahmed and wish him every success in his new role as Second Imam.

Elections will take place on Sunday, 18th May, between 12 pm and 4 pm in shah Allah.
