# Zakariyya Masjid Motherwell

Zakariyya Masjid is an active Islamic place of worship serving the Muslim community in Wishaw, North Lanarkshire. The masjid provides a dedicated space for the five daily prayers with clearly published prayer timings and congregation (jamaat) schedules, ensuring accessibility for worshippers throughout the day from Fajr through Isha.

The mosque is currently undergoing significant expansion with new construction underway as of February 2025, demonstrating the organisation's commitment to growing its facilities to better serve the local Muslim population. This development reflects the masjid's vision to enhance its capacity and infrastructure for religious and community services.

Beyond prayer facilities, the masjid emphasises Islamic education, particularly Qur'anic learning and teaching, aligning with prophetic traditions that highlight the importance of studying and transmitting Islamic knowledge. The organisation actively encourages community engagement through its donation platform, enabling supporters to contribute towards the construction project and ongoing maintenance.

The masjid serves as a spiritual and educational hub for Muslims in the area, combining essential prayer facilities with a focus on Qur'anic education and community development. Its commitment to physical expansion whilst maintaining theological focus on Islamic learning distinguishes it as a forward-thinking institution dedicated to serving both immediate worship needs and long-term community education goals. The masjid welcomes donations from both local and wider supporters who wish to contribute to this Islamic infrastructure project.
