One of the biggest and old mosque in East London, which accommodating more than 7,000 worshippers for congregational prayers.. The mosque was one of the first in the UK to be allowed to use loudspeakers to broadcast the Azan (Call for prayer).

I was so blessed to be able to visit this old and well known mosque during my visit to East London. My wife was with me, together with Najwa, Atiq & Nabila, but we were separated as we entered, as the ladies would perform their prayers at a different prayer area on the third floor. I had to use the bathroom quite urgently, and the toilets and ablution area were located at a lower level. I was glad to find that the toilets and wcs were thoroughly clean, and the ablution area had both cold and hot water. The facilities are of high standard, befitting its location. When I arrived at the Main Prayer Hall on the ground floor, the muezzin was about to do the call for Isyak prayer. As a traveller, I had an option to jamak and qasar(shortened) my maghrib & isyak prayers. But as the congregations started to come in, I realized that they are going to fill the entire hall..All praises to Allah!! Hence, I had to opportunity to perform my isyak prayer with the whole congregation... May Allah accept all my good deeds during my musafir period in England..

Beautiful mosque, very spacious, 2 main halls and more spaces downstairs, very clean, ablution place is clean and tidy, great efforts from the Management department. They have other floors for different activities, seems interesting for people who live in east of London. They pray Al-Asr according to Madhab Hanafi which is delayed to other madhab. Baraka Allahu feekom.

East London Mosque is situated in Whitechapel with one entrance in the main road . That entrance takes you to the rear part of the prayer halls. There is a wudu area and shoe racks and the rear of the Ground floor prayer hall and also, round to the right are stairs down to the Basement prayer hall. They provide light blue shoe bags and many keep the shoe bag with them for prayer. There is an entrance next door in a building named London Muslim Centre. This building entrance takes you to a hallway and then you go left to the main prayer hall. In Fieldgate Rd there is another entrance to London Muslim Centre taking you to the hall on your right. This is named Entrance 2 . Then there is another entrance to the Masjid building taking you nearer the front of the prayer hall and is named Entrance 3. The London Muslim Centre houses a Secondary school on 2nd floor and a Junior school on 4th floor. It also has meeting rooms. The Jumuah, Friday prayer was due to start at 1.45 with khutbah (talk) at 1.15. By 12.45 the main prayer hall was full. Lots of people arriving even 45 minutes before khutbah. I was one of many going to the basement prayer hall. There is plenty of wudu and toilet facilities, clean and tidy although one soap dispenser was empty. All around the outer parts of the prayer hall were tiny cubicles for people who live in the Masjid for the last days of Ramadan. The khutbah began at 1.15 after everyone had done 4 rakats . The imam could be seen in a screen in the basement prayer hall. The khutbah was delivered in Bengali and English. This area has a large Bengali community. The prayer began around 1.55. People left around 2.10. There was a collection and an appeal by Muslim Aid for building Masajid in Syria. The Masjid takes credit cards as well as cash. You can donate online too for the Masjid. The atmosphere was busy, crowded, prayerful and quite nice to experience.

Mosques are the heart of various religious functions of Muslims. Apart from prayer, teaching, information sharing and dispute resolution are also done here. In terms of mosque excellence, the Kaaba or Masjid al-Nabawi has evolved greatly from the simple open courtyard mosque of the seventh century. Many mosques now feature massive domes, tall minarets and large courtyards. Although the mosque originated in the Arabian Peninsula, it has now spread to all countries of the world. The East London Mosque is located in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, between Whitechapel and Aldgate in London, serving the UK's largest Muslim community. This is one of the largest mosques in Europe, there are separate rooms for men and women to pray together. This is a very large mosque, the inside of the mosque is very beautiful. A mind-blowing mosque.

You might know that this is the largest Masjid in the UK. Due to this, they have many facilities such as Islamic shops etc part of the masjid building. The huge size also allows for a significant capacity especially during jamaat times. The building is also very pleasant to look at inside and out. The staff and volunteers do an excellent job of running the masjid and keeping everything clean.

this mosque was of a more traditional shape than its predecessor and built on a far larger scale. In the many years since its establishment, this new mosque, located on Whitechapel Road, has emerged as one of the more influential institutions in the community. The struggles to establish a mosque of its size were many, and the building now stands as evidence of that effort and as a symbol of the many years of presence of Muslim Britons in the East End.

This place is a lovely hub for everyone and everything. This masjid is a perfect place to come pray, do activities and stuff. There are renovating which I guess will take some time to complete. The masjid was very clean, water was warm and imam had beautiful recitation.

East London Mosque is one of the oldest Mosques in London, it’s probably one of the largest Mosque in UK. It’s constantly expanding to accommodate the need for Ummah. I love visiting and praying there. It opens its doors to non Muslim communities as well where thy can come and visit the mosque. The atmosphere is very welcoming and peaceful. I know personally few Imams who are amazing people. If you want to know Muslim and Islam, please visit the mosque. Don’t judge Islam by hearing from others.

The East London Mosque, positioned within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, lies between Whitechapel and Aldgate East. In conjunction with the adjacent London Muslim Centre and Maryam Centre, it stands as one of the most expansive mosques in Europe, capable of accommodating over 7,000 worshippers during congregational prayers.

The largest mosque in London. Accommodating more than 7000 people. Wudu, toilets and shower facilities available. Separate prayer rooms for women.

One of the biggest Mosques in Europe. Well designed and accommodates people of all culture. If you are looking to explore/understand Islam and would like to learn about the functions of a Mosque, then this is the Mosque to visit. They have guided tours and a dedicated gallery for visitors, students and tourists. The British Royal Family visit the Mosque every now amd then. Highly recommended!

Combined with the adjoining London Muslim Centre and Maryam Centre, it is one of the largest mosques in Europe, accommodating more than 7,000 worshippers for congregational prayers. The mosque was one of the first in the UK to be allowed to use loudspeakers to broadcast the adhan.

Once I have visited there very calm and beautiful peaceful place for all my Muslim sisters and brothers

The East London Mosque in the heart of East London, Tower Hamlets. One of London’s oldest mosque and it’s certainly rich in history. It’s also known as one of the largest mosques in the UK / Europe when combined with London Muslim Centre. Great facilities and services available to the community.

Subhan Allah! More than 10 thousands people are praying Friday prayer. I am one of them. Alhamdulillah!

The most organised mosque I have ever seen. The staff is so helpful, there is always a space for you- how ever late you might be at the Friday’s prayer. The only downside when there is a Sheikh giving Khotba in a language other than English, sometimes he could be carried away more than the English part of the the same Khotba.

Mashaallah One of the best ones in East London This is the first area where I came to London and I’m willing to pay extra rent to live nearby. Much safer and more convenient to go anywhere too. There are range of restaurants around too and good schools for Muslim families to keep their children in touch with their religious and spiritual beliefs. The only weakness is price wise and lack of good parks around. Btw the Mosque has a great app also that can notify you with praying time and many useful things, it’s called ELM. God bless them I was lucky to meet mufti Menk too for Friday Khutbah.

All the services you need for prayers are here. they hold talks on certain days. i also do boxing thursdays. make local honey. they may have other things available too

This is an absolutely spellbinding mosque. The community which has been fostered as a result is amazing and the imams are learned, approachable and have impeccable manners. Taraweeh at ELM is an experience that one should not miss, the recitation pierces the heart and standing side by side with your brothers and sisters in their section is surreal. This mosque is a cornerstone for not just the Muslim Population in Whitechapel but the whole of London. They organise superb youth evenings and charity events.

The ladies section in the East London mosque needs to be newly renovated. Here is a list of things that need to be done. - Firstly, the area is too small. Why is the mens section so large ?? - carpets need to be deep cleaned once a week - The toilets and showers sometimes don’t work properly, the toilet roll holder pops open, taps spurt out too much water. - Someone needs to go around wiping door handles, light switches and taps clean 3x a day with anti bacterial wipes. - The cleaner needs to wear cleaning uniform. Hair cap, face mask, Long gloves, plastic over her shoes and a coat. - please tell women when they want to chat to keep voice down and also discipline their children. The kids are always running around they need to have a section for kids with toys and please teach them basic manners also. Maybe best to also have small rooms for people who have kids with disabilities. - should have someone walking around every half an hour making sure everything is fine I’ve noticed some dodgy people walk around the place - bigger bookshelf with more variety of books maybe 3x of each books - the TV should show how to do wudu, pray, read Dua and do duas as so many different nationalities do it so many different ways. Also maybe show different hadiths, different types of duas, things going on in the mosque etc. make sure it’s written in different languages. Please also write that it’s important for people to shower, change clothes and use deodorant regularly , to speak to people nicely, have good manners, don’t talk about people behind their back and for Bengali women not to go around asking younger women if their married because they know someone who is looking for a wife. - Maybe next to the bathroom entrance put Dua for entering and leaving bathroom. - sermons need to be in different languages not just in !Bengali

One of the beautiful mosque and I believe the biggest mosque in the Uk. They have all the facilities for men & woman to perform the prayers with separate entrances . Immam’s are very knowledgeable and always chose the weekly lectures on current topics.

A great place to visit and admire the internal architecture. You can vist this place even if you of other faiths, as they welcome everyone only thing is you will be asked to take your footwear off at the entrance. Very spiritual place and staff are very friendly.

Outstanding place of worship. We'll thought out services for the whole community. Very large prayer halls with descent overflow. Accommodation for funeral services is brilliant. Site also has excellent wedding halls. Ablution area is large and clean. Possibly need to increase the extractor fan speed to maximise oder removal. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend a visit.

Each year, Trustees failures to provide sufficient Ramadan food continues. Very small portions leaving hungry muslims. Last 3 years, Trustees saved Tens of thousands due to Covid. Doors away IBIS Hotel holds Al Qaeda mercenaries/Spies/Traitors who amount to over 250 residing /breaking fast in the mosque. This Mosque needs Urgent & Independent Forensic Audit. Trustees must resign, corruption will be exposed.

Very big mosque with all most every facilities

In the COVID19 situation this Mosque is tackling everything very professionally & amicably.

Took my son to get his circumcision done. The people was excellent and extremely helpful. They was very reassuring about the whole process and what to expect after. Would recommend to others

The East London Mosque (ELM) is situated in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets between Whitechapel and Aldgate East. It serves Great Britain's largest Muslim community, chiefly British Bangladeshis.Combined with the adjoining London Muslim Centre and Maryam Centre, it is one of the largest mosques in Europe, and the biggest in the UK, accommodating more than 7,000 worshippers for congregational prayers.The mosque was one of the first in the UK to be allowed to use loudspeakers to broadcast the adhan.

Very impressed with how they controlled distancing with congregation. The sermons/talks also very good and well delivered

One of greatest mosque in Europe. Lots of space. Women’s separate area. Separate entrance for women. Teaching kids islamic education.

If you intend to pray in a larger congregation of worshippers then East London Mosque should be the first choice. You can bring along your family and children with you, no problem. InshAllah you will enjoy your time in the mosque if you are a visitors from abroad . Don’t return home without visiting this mosque. This is the best place for worship indeed . InshAllah

The largest Masjid in London, a lovely spacious and warm place to visit. We went to attend Dr Haifa's lecture for women and it was very busy ماشاءاللہ. The closest tube station is Whitechapel tube station.

2nd biggest Masjid in the Uk, very big space. They have some good lectures and events from time to time. There are currently some renovation works going on at the masjid.

I had a wonderful experience visiting the East London Mosque. The atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming, providing a serene space for prayer. The facilities were clean, and the mosque's architectural beauty added to the spiritual ambiance. Praying Asr there was a truly uplifting experience. I appreciate the mosque's role as a hub for the community and its commitment to fostering a sense of unity. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a place for prayer and reflection in East London.

Masha'Allah one of my favourite mosques in London. Please visit and you'll feel the spiritual connection. The ablution area has warm water, super clean and hygienic.

Beautiful masjid, beautiful recitation, many events too but I'm not too sure if they do a funeral service just drop by if you need any advice or have questions. One of the first ever Masjids in London. Check their website for more!

Never lets us down!!

I’ve been to this mosque 5X now and I am not happy with a few things. For example can you PLEASE tell the cleaner to wear an apron, face mask and scrubs over her shoes and gloves up to her elbows when cleaning toilets. Also PLEASE can you mop the carpet in the ladies section it is really dirty ! And make sure the whole ladies section is hoovered every morning before anyone enters. Can you also please open up the ladies section from 8am in the morning. The eating area in the ladies section is filthy PLEASE mop the floor and scrub the walls !! Astagifurallah this is a masjid why don’t you keep it clean??? You also have to announce in Bengali, English, Arabic, Somalian language that if people are bringing their kids to the mosque make sure they wash their hands, they don’t run around and slam doors and to keep quiet when the Azan plays. Parents should bring toys along to entertain the kids. Muslim kids are so badly behaved !!

Mash'Allah such a beautiful place with great facilities inside and outside. Everytime we go to White Chapel we always try to go and visit ELM. There's men and women facilities so if you're out with the family you can spend almost the entire day in there as there food place literally next door

Fantastic and friendly place. Very welcoming feeling as soon as you enter. I recommend a visit muslim or not!

The East London Mosque is an impressive institution that serves as a focal point for the local Muslim community. Its grand facade and spacious interior offer a welcoming and peaceful environment for prayers and gatherings. The intricate architectural details, combined with the sense of history and culture, contribute to the mosque's unique charm. The attached London Muslim Centre further enriches the experience, providing a range of services and activities. As one of the largest mosques in the UK, the East London Mosque stands as a symbol of unity and diversity, making it a must-visit destination for both locals and visitors seeking to learn about Islamic culture and spirituality.

Double standard durring their prayers time you can just block street, parking on double lines any time no problem . Try to complain council will do nothing. I fairly enjoyed freedom of people who blocked pavement because they're praying to Allah. Perfect reason to leave East London Biased

These people and these delusional people from these local community need to stop feeding and breeding this cultural and hypocritical and selfish mox and their conceited management who dose money lotting from the public funds in disguise on false charity by deceit word of mouth. I was waiting for the lift today and lift wasn’t even chominh I was there 10 mins standing, I never felt a terrible experience in my life. what if I needed to go downstairs for emergency and your telling me the lift is like 10 mins late while I was waiting I realise how incompetent the lift is, dirty, greasy, smelling and it was incredibly concerning because it was vile the appearance of the lift you felt you might likely catch covid. Moreover they don’t even have the sign postage of the lift that should help down for the statues what the hell of this even if you go to a country that is made out of poor and poor economic growth they even try to make things the best looking by giving 10/10 but look at these money grabbing frauds just trying to pick loot community’s money and steal away by doing runner while playing fake religious by disguise and on 500k payroll every week but then slowly I deeped the same people who run as management in this conceited mox made it looking faulty so worshipers don’t use the lift and think it’s faulty so they can skive by not paying the bills of the lift on the other hand so many fake believers are just rushing down the stairs like its King’s Cross station like they will miss the train when it’s only a 786 mox not a mox built on religious matters and tradition, those people rushing like it’s not just matter time you’ll be out and see the light of the tunnel you’ll be not stuck here so why be much hesitant and none of them even willing to read the two rekat sunnah prayer

There is daily salahs held here(including jummuah salahs). The building has disability access, separate buildings for men's and women's prayer and other activities and has lifts. They also host weddings and events. They host funeral prayer here too. There is a primary and secondary school 🏫 on top of the Masjid. They have taraweeh in Ramadan and it's so peaceful. And there are Qur'an completion halaqahs that are held there too, very beautiful.

One of the biggest and old mosque in East London, which accommodating more than 7,000 worshippers for congregational prayers.. The mosque was one of the first in the UK to be allowed to use loudspeakers to broadcast the Adan (Call for prayer).

Beautiful clean mosque. I prayed for Jumma there. The mosque was packed with people and we had to go to the 3rd floor. After the prayer we prayed Janajah.

Parking is obviously an issue but can still find pay and display. Clean and very spacious mosque. Multiple facilities, such as morgue, transportation of body, learning Centre, women's centre, etc

Lovel mosque. Big one. I hope mosque committee remove that imam who sang song inside another mosque.

I love this Place! If I can I will come back again and again ❤️

Very well organized masjid... 7 starsss

Very nice mosque

A building that has grown in past 40 years. Sitting peaceful in the heart of East London. Serving the community for decades. It is truly an iconic building with rich history that will be celebrated over generation to come.

Peaceful

One of the Largest, most visited & popular places of worship in Great Britain. Everyone is welcome to visit to find out more about Islam. East London Mosque is especially busy on Friday when its hosts the weekly Jumaa prayer.

They have a very large space for women in an adjacent building and wudhu facilities. Have always been able to pray whenever visiting London alhamdulillah. However during the Covid crisis, they allow access for all prayers except Fajr for women. When visiting on Sunday we had to ask a man a few times for a key to allow them to open the door whereas the men's section was automatically open. Did not understand why they don't open the doors for the women automatically, like they do for the men so we were waiting in the rain and missed the first rakah of Maghrib Salah. Please ensure doors are open for both spaces at the same time to avoid women having to wait in the cold and rain. Other than this, people in London are lucky to have a mosque which still allows women to pray, the same can't be said for the majority of mosques around the UK unfortunately.

MashaAllah the best mosque in London

My favourite mosque ❤

Excellent place to learn and worship. A huge collection of books, experienced and professional Imams who deliver their speeches according to the Holy Qur'an and authentic Hadiths. Simply love to be there.
