# Masjid Noor & Education Centre
Masjid Noor & Education Centre is an established Islamic place of worship and learning community based in Thornhill Lees, Dewsbury. Since its inception in 2013, the masjid has grown to become a cornerstone institution serving the spiritual and educational needs of the local Muslim population.
The centre operates as a multifunctional facility offering five times daily prayer services, alongside comprehensive educational programmes. Their madrasah runs Monday to Friday from 5pm to 7pm, catering to children aged four and upwards, with dedicated instruction in Quranic recitation with tajweed, memorisation (hifz), and Islamic studies covering beliefs, daily practices, and moral development. They also provide dedicated female instruction through morning classes (11am-12pm) including tajweed and Quranic tafseer.
What distinguishes Masjid Noor is their commitment to inclusive community engagement. They welcome all attendees and provide gender-segregated learning spaces, particularly their women's classes focusing on advanced Quranic study. The centre offers additional community services including marriage solemnisation, funeral arrangements, and shahada ceremonies, making them a comprehensive religious and social hub.
The masjid's conversion of a former church building symbolises their integration within the broader Dewsbury community whilst maintaining strong Islamic principles. Their approachable contact methods and readily available application forms demonstrate accessibility for families seeking educational services.
