About us
The
Islamic Cultural Centre (ICC) incorporates The London
Central Mosque and was established in 1944. Since its
establishment, the ICC acts on behalf of all british Muslims
vis-a-vis the government. local authorities and official
bodies. This covers matters pertraining to health, welfare,
education and more.
The London Central Mosque and the annexed Islamic Cultural
Centre have become the focus of Islam and Muslims in the
UK. In addition to providing facilities for daily worship
by Muslims and Islamic Education for the children in and
the surrounding areas, the Centre is proud to have played
a pivotal role in the establishment of almost every other
mosque and Islamic institutions in the UK which are intended
to serve their respective local Muslim community. The
capacity for praying purposes at the mosque was designed
to accommodate about 4500 people, including the basement
foyers and extended open wings. But in practice, the figure
may top 6000 worshippers during the Summer period when
up to 1000 or more offer their prayers in the open forecourt
of the mosque. For the two festivals, up to 50,000 Muslims
visit the Mosque and offer their prayers in batches (six
on an average Eid day).
