# Quwwat ul Islam Mosque & Education Centre
Quwwat ul Islam is a well-established Islamic institution serving Preston's Muslim community since its founding in 1970. Located in Deepdale, it has evolved into one of Lancashire's most active and comprehensive Islamic centres, operating from a substantial complex that accommodates over 700 children and adults weekly.
The mosque provides essential religious and educational services rooted in Quranic teachings and the Sunnah. Beyond traditional prayer facilities for both private worship and congregational gatherings, the centre operates an extensive education programme spanning children and adults. This includes structured madrasah classes alongside enriching extracurricular activities designed to develop well-rounded, engaged community members.
What distinguishes Quwwat ul Islam is its holistic approach to community welfare and social responsibility. The organisation actively supports vulnerable and disadvantaged families through financial and moral assistance, whilst simultaneously fostering interfaith engagement by welcoming visitors of all backgrounds for guided mosque tours. The centre also facilitates important life events, including Islamic marriage ceremonies.
Under the leadership of Moulana Khalid Ibrahim, the institution emphasises character development, instilling pride in Islamic identity whilst promoting broader social contribution. Their mission extends beyond local support to global humanitarian concerns, reflecting a commitment to developing compassionate, hardworking Muslims who understand their role in society.
The centre functions as a genuine community hub, combining spiritual guidance, educational excellence, and practical welfare support.
