The vision of Wembley Central Masjid is to preserve, implement, and disseminate Islamic knowledge, as well as nurturing and preparing our future leaders through sound, traditional understanding and learning. Wembley Central Masjid is unique in that along with providing a beautiful sanctuary for worship, it also incorporates a educational institute.

We are grateful to Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) to have a number of young, British born, qualified Islamic scholars on our staff in addition to enjoying the support of many ulama from across the nation.

OUR ASPIRATION

After reflecting on the history of British Muslims, it is apparent that Islamic scholarship has arrived on this country’s shores in successive waves. The first generation of immigrant Muslims, still strongly tied to their homelands, invited scholars born and educated abroad to teach them in their native languages and help them live their deen harmoniously in the new land. Thereafter, their children, immersed in the British language and culture, called for scholars who could relate to them. So a second wave of scholars, this time British-born Muslims. travelled overseas and acquired the knowledge they needed to serve their generation. Now the time has come to raise up a new wave of learned Muslims who have been born, bred, and educated at home. A wave that will duly fill the sacred posts of Imams and Scholars, address Islamic legal and social issues and challenges unique to the Western context, convey with clear expression the true spirit of Islam to our non-Muslim fellow citizens, and establish institutions that will be forces of good, both spiritually and intellectually. Wembley Central Masjid aspires to prepare these future leaders to take on the challenges for generations to come.
