# Belfast Islamic Centre
Belfast Islamic Centre is a community-focused mosque and Islamic organisation serving Muslims across Northern Ireland since 1978. Located in Belfast BT7 1NA, the centre operates as an inclusive space welcoming Muslims of all ethnic backgrounds, nationalities, and ages—currently serving representatives from 42 different countries.
The centre provides essential spiritual and practical services to support both religious observance and community wellbeing. Members can participate in five daily prayers with published monthly timetables, whilst the centre also facilitates major life events including marriage solemnisation, conversion ceremonies (shahada), and Islamic funeral arrangements. Beyond worship, the centre actively engages with the wider community by hosting educational visits and seminars, and offers specialist guidance for healthcare professionals supporting Muslim patients.
What distinguishes Belfast Islamic Centre is its commitment to serving the broader community beyond its immediate congregation. The organisation provides culturally sensitive advice to medical professionals, supports interfaith dialogue through hosting visits, and maintains a welcoming environment for individuals exploring Islam. The centre is currently undergoing significant refurbishment, with Phase 1 completed in January 2024, demonstrating ongoing investment in facilities and services.
Operating on a non-denominational basis, Belfast Islamic Centre represents a vital institution preserving over a century of Muslim heritage in Northern Ireland whilst building for the future through community engagement and infrastructure development.
