# Assalam Centre
Assalam Centre is an Islamic mosque and community hub located in Maidstone, serving the local Muslim population and anyone seeking to learn about Islam. The centre operates as a traditional masjid, offering five daily prayers with designated congregation times, plus dedicated Friday Jumu'ah prayers with khutbah (sermon) at 1:00 PM.
Beyond prayer facilities, Assalam Centre functions as a comprehensive Islamic institution. It runs an Islamic Madrassah providing religious education and Quranic studies for children and young people, ensuring the next generation develops strong Islamic knowledge and values. The centre actively engages in community welfare through organised Zakat collection and distribution, helping those in need whilst enabling members to fulfil this fundamental Islamic obligation.
The centre distinguishes itself through its humanitarian initiatives. Currently, it operates dedicated campaigns supporting Gaza relief efforts and is undertaking an ambitious New Masjid Fund project to expand its facilities and better serve the growing community. This forward-thinking approach reflects their commitment to sustainable community development.
What sets Assalam Centre apart is its holistic approach to Islamic practice and community care. Rather than functioning solely as a prayer space, it integrates spiritual guidance, religious education, charitable work, and humanitarian support. The transparent prayer timetables, multiple daily congregation times, and active engagement with contemporary issues demonstrate a modern, accessible approach to traditional Islamic values. Their emphasis on both personal spiritual development and collective community responsibility makes them a vital resource for Maidstone's Muslim community.
