# Broomhouse Mosque

Broomhouse Mosque serves the Muslim community of Edinburgh, providing a comprehensive spiritual and social hub for faith practice, education and life-stage support. Located in EH11 3RH, the mosque operates as part of the Association of Scottish Muslims network, extending its reach across Scotland.

The mosque facilitates daily prayers, including early morning Fajr sessions through their "Fajr Knights" programme, creating accountability and community engagement around worship. Beyond prayer, they operate an Islamic Academy offering religious education for younger generations in a structured learning environment. The mosque recognises significant life moments, providing marriage solemnisation services (nikah) conducted within Islamic guidelines, welcoming new Muslims through shahada ceremonies, and offering dignified funeral arrangements (janazah) during times of loss.

Community support extends to charitable giving, with active donation campaigns addressing both local needs—including a renovation appeal for the Broomhouse facility itself—and international humanitarian crises, including orphan support in Gaza and Lebanon. They facilitate zakat and sadaqah contributions, recognising these Islamic charitable pillars as central to community responsibility.

What distinguishes Broomhouse Mosque is its integrated approach to faith and welfare. Rather than functioning solely as a prayer space, it positions itself as a life-stage companion, addressing practical needs alongside spiritual development. Their connection to the broader ASM network amplifies resources and opportunities whilst maintaining local community focus.
