Why should I visit Exhibition Islam 2017 at Wimbledon Mosque?

The Exhibition Islam event at Wimbledon Mosque brings together a wealth of information about Islam under one roof giving the opportunity for the wider community to learn more about their Muslim neighbours in a friendly environment.

There are about 3 million Muslims in the UK and an estimated 1,750 mosques. The mosque is a place to gather for daily prayers, to study and to celebrate festivals such as Eid after the fasting month of Ramadan. However, many within our local community are yet to visit a Mosque. Contacting us by email, a local member of the community mentions “I live in Wimbledon and often drive past the Mosque on Durnsford Road. In light of the recent attack in Finsbury Park and the unfair and divisive representations of the Muslim community in the media, I would really appreciate the opportunity to come and visit the Mosque to celebrate your faith.”

Although our doors are always open for visits throughout the year, Wimbledon Mosque hopes that a communal event will allow the wider community to visit in larger groups.

So if you’re still not sure whether to attend here’s a few reasons:

• Learn more about your Muslim neighbours and the way of life of 5% of the UK population
• Ask questions in a relaxed, friendly environment
• Explore the unknown – see the inside of a Mosque
• Most importantly – join us for a good old British cuppa with some light refreshments

We look forward to welcoming you to the Exhibition. To receive a reminder closer to the time please register online.
