# Ely Muslims - Business Description
Ely Islamic Centre is a registered charity (1187894) serving the Muslim community across Ely and the surrounding 10-mile radius in Cambridgeshire. As the first Islamic centre in the East Cambridge district, the mosque provides essential religious, educational, and community services to approximately 30-40 families within a predominantly non-Muslim population of 90,000.
The centre functions as a dedicated space for congregational prayers, with regular daily prayers including Fajr, Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha, alongside Friday Juma'ah services. Beyond worship, Ely Islamic Centre offers educational programmes, social welfare support, and community gatherings that serve both the Muslim community and the wider Ely population. The organisation is actively committed to interfaith dialogue and community cohesion, positioning itself as a bridge between faiths and encouraging greater understanding and integration.
Currently undertaking an ambitious three-phase expansion project, the centre aims to establish a comprehensive community facility. Phase 1 involves purchasing neighbouring property, whilst Phases 2 and 3 focus on extending both current and neighbouring premises to create a fully equipped Islamic community hub. This expansion reflects the growing population and the centre's vision to provide facilities for religious instruction, youth development, and charitable activities.
The mosque welcomes both established community members and those seeking to learn about Islam, emphasising accessibility and openness. Donations support their construction appeal and ongoing community services.
