Daily & Weekly Prayers

Thamesmead Islamic Centre welcomes all Muslims to join in the spiritual heart of our community—daily Salah and the blessed Jumu’ah prayer. The masjid remains open for all five daily congregational prayers, following accurate local timings throughout the year. Each prayer is a moment to pause, reconnect with Allah ﷻ, and strengthen brotherhood and unity.

Our weekly Friday prayer brings together worshippers from across the area, with a khutbah that speaks to the needs of today’s Muslim. Everyone is welcome in a clean, calm, and respectful space.

Daily Prayers and Jummah prayers (Salah)

Thamesmead Islamic Centre is actively seeking a permanent location. Currently, we are able to offer Jummah prayers on Fridays and Asr prayers on Sundays at our temporary venue. For further information and updates, please get in touch with us directly or follow our Facebook page.

“Establish prayer, for indeed, prayer prevents immorality and wrongdoing. And the remembrance of Allah is greater.” 

— Qur’an, Surah Al-‘Ankabut (29:45)
