# Masjid Umar - Islamic Centre Scotstoun
Masjid Umar is an Islamic centre and mosque serving Glasgow's diverse Muslim community in Scotstoun, G14 0XA. As a spiritual hub, the masjid provides daily prayer facilities with five congregational prayers offered throughout the day, from Fajr at 5:15am through to Isha at 10:15pm. The centre broadcasts all prayers live via eMasjid Live, enabling community members worldwide to join collective worship remotely.
The masjid specifically prioritises engaging young Muslims and youth as future community leaders, offering a welcoming environment where worshippers can strengthen their faith, seek Islamic knowledge, and participate in acts of worship including special Taraweeh and Jummah prayers. This intergenerational approach reflects their commitment to building an active, vibrant community.
What distinguishes Masjid Umar is its focus on accessibility and connectivity. By offering live-streamed prayer services, they extend their reach beyond the physical mosque, allowing diaspora members and those unable to attend in person to maintain spiritual connection. The centre also emphasises community involvement and contribution to institutional growth, positioning the masjid not merely as a place of worship but as a comprehensive Islamic and social resource.
The facility includes prayer halls, educational spaces showcased in their gallery, and comprehensive services supporting the full spectrum of community needs. Their welcoming approach to youth engagement and emphasis on accessible spiritual guidance distinguishes them within Glasgow's faith landscape.
