Purley Masjid is a modern Islamic community centre in a suburb of South London, Purley. It was established in 2015 after fundraising raising to accommodate the needs of the local Muslim community.
Ma Sha’ Allah, the Masjid is now trying to cope with the demand and has to overcome many challenges to support the Muslim and also the non-Muslim community. Here are just a few examples of the issues:
We have one main hall which accommodates only 200 people for an average Jumu’ah congregation of over 400. People often have to wait outside in the forecourt for the second Jamaat
Current facilities for ladies accommodate around 30, whereas the demand is known to be more than 150. This is severely restricting our ability to meet the current demand for women
Our lectures, fitness classes, mothers and toddlers group, daily Iftaris in Ramadhan, and seniors' meet-up sessions all take place on the same carpeted area on which we pray. This is not ideal, and as we are effectively operating out of one hall, it means that we can only have one activity happening at any given time
The Food Bank only has enough space for a shelf rack to store food. It caters for anyone in need in the Purley community, Muslim and non-Muslim alike
“Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise*”

By the Grace of Allah SWT, we have embarked on the Building Purley Masjid project to cater to the community's needs. The project will result in a new Masjid on the current Purley Masjid site and will be a modern, purpose-built building for the community, spanning 6 floors that will include:
Two male prayer halls with a combined capacity of 500
A ladies’ prayer hall with a capacity of over 200 and crèche facilities
A multi-purpose hall
A dedicated lecture/events hall (we held over 100 last year), which can accommodate 100 people
Improved facilities for our already existing Youth Activities, Mothers and Toddlers Group and Seniors Group
Separate classrooms for our Madrasah classes
More space for our weekly Food Bank
We already have all these activities running at Purley Masjid but are struggling to meet demands and keep up our excellent service.
Spread your sponsorship - weekly or monthly - by completing the pledge form
We need your support to complete this project and have launched the Sponsor a Tile appeal.
A Donors' Wall will be made of tiles and will form a permanent feature of Purley Masjid for future generations to come to view and be inspired. Each tile can be personalised with the name of a family member, living or deceased, organisation or group adorned on one or more tiles
By sponsoring, you are doing Sadaqah Jariyah, continuous charity, an act that someone does that continues to generate good deeds even after the person has left this World.
There are only a limited number of tiles so we request you come forward quickly and sponsor a tile to leave behind a lasting legacy In Sha 'Allah. Once they are gone, they are gone!
If you are unable to sponsor a tile, please consider the option of sponsoring a virtual Mussala'.
