RE- ESTABLISHING THE MASJID AT THE HEART OF THE COMMUNITY
Clitheroe Masjid will be a unique religious and cultural centre in the North West of England, increasing understanding about Islam and its message of peace for all people.
The 21st century brings with it new and unprecedented challenges for the global Muslim community and humanity as a whole. At a time when misunderstanding and fear of Islam is endemic within Western societies, it is more important than ever that we reclaim and bring back to the fore the true representation of our beautiful faith and share as widely as possible the wisdom and guidance contained in its teachings.
The masjids are well placed to act as conduits through which Muslims can play an integral role in the advancement of community life, yet most are woefully inadequate in realising the full potential and calling of the masjid, especially in these troubled times.
Clitheroe Masjid intends to put the masjid firmly back where it belongs - at the heart of the community. It is a vital project which aims to build bridges and advance the cause of Islam and humanity in general. It will include a prayer hall, community hall, exhibition space and classes, as well as a public refreshment area and conference/lecture facilities.
The cost of the project is expected to reach one million pounds in total, but YOU can help make this noble cause possible...visit our donate page
