The mosque warmly welcomes all worshippers to join in the observance of the five daily prayers, which are held consistently throughout each day, serving as a sacred opportunity for spiritual reflection, connection, and renewal. In addition to the daily congregational prayers, the mosque also holds the blessed Jumu’ah (Friday) prayers every week, a central pillar of communal worship in Islam.
To accommodate the growing community, the mosque offers two Jumu’ah services each Friday, ensuring that all attendees have the chance to partake in this important act of devotion. For detailed information regarding the precise timings of each prayer throughout the day, including the Jumu’ah schedules, we kindly invite you to refer to the complete prayer timetable available here. Please see here for complete prayer times.

These sessions aim to help couples build realistic expectations, develop effective communication skills, and learn how to approach differences with patience, understanding, and mutual respect.
