Friday 11th Feb – After Isha (7.15pm) | Edinburgh Central Mosque is pleased to host a short course on “Falling in Love”.

This 90 minute class will be delivered in the main hall of the Mosque and will be led by one of our Imams. The focus of the discussion will be on how to deal with emotional attachments in life.

The course aims to create awareness of the positive and negative aspects of such bonding drawing from the Qur’an, Sunnah, conventional literature and the community experience. A must for every curious mind.

Join us at Edinburgh Central Mosque for two special Muslim Youth events. Held over two Friday Evenings, covering various insightful topics from the Qur’an and Sunnah.

Edinburgh Central Mosque is pleased to announce the beginning of the blessed month of Ramadan. 

The first day of fasting will be Tuesday the 13th of April
The first night of Taraweeh will be tonight, 12th of April

For tonight, more spaces for Ishaa/Taraweeh at 9pm.  Thereafter, Isha/Taraweeh listings to live at 1am each day.

We extend our warmest wishes to our community, and ask Allah to engulf us in His mercy and safety throughout the month.

From the entire team at Edinburgh Central Mosque – Ramadan Mubarak!
