# Masjid Fatimah Zahra
Masjid Fatimah Zahra is a registered UK charity mosque located on Osmaston Road in Leicester's Evington area, serving the local Muslim community since 2014. What began as a modest musalla in a corner property has evolved into a purpose-built Islamic centre following expansion in 2016 when the congregation acquired and renovated an adjacent warehouse, opening with prayers on the blessed day of Arafah.
The mosque functions as a spiritual and educational hub for Leicester's diverse Muslim population. Beyond providing the five daily prayers and two Friday congregations, the masjid distinguishes itself through comprehensive educational programming. This includes daily Qur'anic study circles (ta'leem), dedicated madrasah classes for children from age five, and a structured hifz programme for both boys and girls seeking to memorise the Qur'an. The mosque also offers nikah (marriage) services and hosts enriching religious lectures.
What sets Masjid Fatimah Zahra apart is its commitment to multicultural inclusivity whilst maintaining strong Islamic scholarship. The facility hosts regular scholarly sessions including Qur'an tafseer, hadith studies (darse hadith), and islahi majlis (spiritual counselling circles), primarily scheduled for evenings and weekends to accommodate working members. The mosque actively broadcasts content through Radio Seerah and plans to launch live streaming via Mixlr, extending its reach beyond physical attendees. This blend of traditional Islamic learning with modern accessibility demonstrates the mosque's dedication to serving both spiritual needs and contemporary community requirements.
