In 21st century Britain, the role of the Masjid is as important as it was in the time of our Prophet Muhammad (Peace and blessings be upon him).
The Gloucester Muslim Welfare Association (Established in 1960) purpose is to advance the Islamic faith through the provision of a wide range of spiritual, educational and social services enriched with Islamic values that fulfil the needs of our members and the wider community.
Our vision is to become a centre of excellence for Islamic learning and practice providing a beacon for both Muslims and other faith communities who wish to gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of Islam – a place where one can experience and embrace the genuine beauty of our faith.
By the grace of Almighty Allah, and the prayers of many distinguished scholars and well wishers, presently within the organisation of the Gloucester Muslim Welfare Association we manages and runs the Gloucestersire Islamic Girls School the First in the South West of England since 1994, as well as the Al Ashraf Nursery and the Al Ashraf Primary School. As well as the largest Madrasah Nur Ul Islam in Gloucester.
Alhamdullilah we are currently in the process of extending and renovating the Masjid e Noor not only to meet today’s but insha’Allah the future generation needs and to overcome some of the difficulty that needs to be addressed in this mosque which was built in 1983.
We pray that you consider our project worthy of your generous support.
