# Shahporan Islamic Centre
Shahporan Islamic Centre is a full-time masjid serving the North Bristol Muslim community, located in BS10 5QD. Established in 2014, the centre has grown from a converted shop on Filton Avenue to a dedicated building on Doncaster Lane—a former church and scout building now purpose-fitted as a mosque.
The centre caters primarily to North Bristol's Muslim population, offering daily congregational prayers and comprehensive Islamic education through madrasah classes. Beyond core religious functions, Shahporan has proven itself an integral community hub, having hosted vaccine clinics during public health initiatives and providing accessible prayer facilities for local worshippers.
What distinguishes Shahporan is its community-driven expansion and responsiveness to local needs. Rather than remaining static, the centre has relocated twice to accommodate growing demand, demonstrating genuine commitment to serving its congregation. The current Masjid Extension Project—targeting £300,000—underscores their ambition to provide enhanced facilities that address identified community gaps. By partnering with Total Giving, they've streamlined donations and enabled gift aid claims, maximising fundraising efficiency.
The centre operates multiple Jummah prayer times (13:30 and 14:15 Friday slots), plus an additional 13:35 session at Cameron Centre, acknowledging the practical scheduling needs of their diverse congregation. This pragmatic approach, combined with transparent communication about projects and accessible prayer times, positions Shahporan as a modern, responsive Islamic institution rather than merely a traditional place of worship.
