About the masjid

A masjid born from a halaqah.

Al-Maqari Al-Qur'aniyyah UK Masjid grew out of the Al-Maqari Al-Qurʾāniyyah halaqāt at the Open Door Community Centre, Southfields. Today it serves the community of Southfields and the wider Wandsworth borough as a place of prayer, study, and gathering.

Our story

The masjid began as a weekly Tuesday halaqah led by Shaykh Mūsā Abuzaghleh. Over nine years it has grown into a daily congregation, hosting the Jumuʿah khutbah, weekly tafsīr, and circles for children, sisters, and brothers across all five daily prayers.

We are part of the wider Al-Maqari Al-Qurʾāniyyah UK institute, which now operates ten halaqāt across London and the rest of the UK.
