# Masjid al Khaleel
Majlis-e-Isha'atul Qur'an Masjid al Khaleel is an established Islamic centre located in Leicester that has served the local Muslim community since October 1997. Operating as a registered charity, the masjid functions as both a place of worship and an educational institution dedicated to Qur'anic learning and Islamic instruction.
The centre caters to Muslims of all ages, from young children through to adults, offering comprehensive religious education programmes alongside traditional mosque facilities. Their approach combines classical Islamic scholarship with practical community support, featuring dedicated classes for Qur'an memorisation (Hifz), recitation (Nazira), and tajweed instruction tailored for both boys and girls. Adult learners benefit from specialised programmes including tajweed courses and extended Tafseer study.
What distinguishes Masjid al Khaleel is their structured year-round curriculum overseen by experienced scholars, particularly Maulana Ibrahim Tarapuri Saheb, whose Qur'anic teachings are distributed through multiple media channels. The masjid provides five daily congregational prayers, Jumu'ah, and Eid celebrations, whilst their Dar-ul-Iftaa offers Islamic counselling and fatwa services. During Ramadan, they intensify engagement with daily Qur'anic and Hadith classes. Youth programmes ensure younger generations remain connected to Islamic learning, whilst their presence across digital platforms—including YouTube and Spreaker—extends their reach beyond the physical Leicester location, making their scholarship accessible to a wider audience.
