# UKIM Handsworth Islamic Centre
UKIM Handsworth Islamic Centre is an established mosque and community hub serving Birmingham's Muslim population and beyond. Located in Handsworth (B20 3PP), the centre addresses the religious, educational and social needs of the local Islamic community whilst fostering positive engagement with wider society.
The organisation operates as a place of worship with six daily prayer times and a prominent Friday Jummah service offered in both Urdu and English at 1:30pm. Beyond worship, UKIM functions as a community resource, providing religious education for children, organising cultural and religious events, and producing educational literature about Islam.
What distinguishes UKIM is its dual commitment: supporting migrant Muslim communities whilst actively promoting integration and contribution to British society's moral and spiritual wellbeing. The centre maintains accessible prayer facilities and publishes downloadable monthly prayer timetables to assist worshippers in planning their daily observances.
UKIM's approach reflects the foundational pillars of Islamic faith—explaining concepts such as Shahada (profession of faith) and Salat (ritual prayer)—whilst creating a welcoming space for both established members and newcomers. The centre demonstrates understanding that contemporary British Muslim communities require both traditional religious services and modern community support structures.
By combining spiritual guidance with practical community development, UKIM positions itself as more than a place of prayer, but rather a comprehensive resource supporting Muslims' integration into British life without compromising their faith practice.
