Ramadan 2025
Ramadan fundraiser
A televised Ramadan appeal that raised money for the masjid renovation.
Our journey
In 2024 the community bought a former Baptist chapel at 15A Out Westgate. Volunteers renovated the upstairs, which has been open for all five daily prayers since January 2025. Work on the ground-floor main prayer hall has resumed, and the appeal is at its final stage.
The building, 2024
The community came together to buy 15A Out Westgate, giving Bury St Edmunds its first permanent masjid.
The upstairs prayer hall
Stripped back and rebuilt by volunteers, with donations covering the materials.
The ground-floor main prayer hall
The larger prayer hall our growing community needs. Building has resumed, and we're raising the last of the money to finish it.
Help us finish the prayer hall
The appeal is at its final stage. Your donation helps build a lasting House of Allah for generations to come.
