# Jamea Masjid, Preston Central Mosque
Jamea Masjid is Preston's principal Islamic community centre, located on Clarendon Street in the town centre. This registered charity (No. 515749) serves the diverse Muslim population across Preston and surrounding areas, functioning as both a place of worship and a comprehensive community hub.
The mosque provides five daily prayer facilities alongside specialised Friday (Jumu'ah) services, supported by live audio and video streaming capabilities for remote worshippers. Beyond spiritual provision, Jamea Masjid operates Madrasah Taleemul Islam, an evening Islamic education programme for children in the local community, ensuring religious knowledge transmission to younger generations.
What distinguishes Jamea Masjid is its ambitious expansion vision. The organisation is actively developing the Jamea Education Academy, a state-of-the-art educational facility designed to benefit the wider society through enhanced community services and educational provision. This construction project represents a significant investment in Preston's Muslim community infrastructure.
The mosque actively engages broader society through organised school visits and guided masjid tours, promoting interfaith understanding and community integration. Revenue streams include the annual Ramadhan Fund supporting operational costs and facility maintenance, alongside the Jamea Shop selling Islamic resources. The centre also offers Jumuah Lillah donations and regular fundraising events.
Under the leadership of its Imam, Jamea Masjid positions itself as an inclusive, forward-thinking institution committed to spiritual guidance, educational enrichment, and positive community contribution.
