Beautiful mosque in west London with lot of services. Well organised, stunning interior design and lighting. May Allah give best reward for all staff and management people, aamin.

**Alhamdulillah**, I visited this mosque last Sunday and was truly inspired by its serene environment. The mosque is exceptionally clean, well-organized, and staffed by warm, welcoming individuals who go out of their way to assist everyone—especially our Afghan brothers and sisters. They offer a unique service called **Patya**, where family and friends gather after the passing of a loved one for Quran recitation and heartfelt *dua*.

During Patya, the Imam beautifully recites verses from the Holy Quran, followed by collective prayers for the deceased. **I’d like to respectfully suggest a small improvement**: To help attendees better connect with the Quran’s message, it would be immensely beneficial if the Imam could **briefly translate and explain 1-2 verses** after recitation. Many of us (including myself) do not fully understand language of quran, and this would allow the community to reflect deeply on Allah’s guidance.

**The Quran is not only a source of divine wisdom but also a lifeline for believers**. In this life, it provides guidance, peace of mind, and healing, empowering us to live with purpose, patience, and moral clarity. It strengthens hearts through faith, protects from harm, and invites countless blessings. **In the Hereafter**, the Quran will intercede for its devoted reciters, elevate their ranks in Paradise, and illuminate their path on the Day of Judgment. Every word recited and acted upon carries eternal reward—a gift for both this world and the next.

**A humble request**: This mosque is a lifeline for so many, but maintaining its services requires support. **Please donate generously**

May **Allah Tala grant contentment in this life and the hereafter** to the mosque’s management, volunteers, and everyone who walks through its doors. May He bless us to embody the Quran’s teachings and unite our community through its timeless wisdom. *Ameen!*

Really nice mosque. Nice community feel, with good clean wudhu facilities. The mosque was also very tidy and spacious and looks to have good facilities for ladies too. I'm sure I'll be revisiting whenever I'm in the area. None Muslims welcome.

I’ve been coming to the IICCUK for several years and I am so grateful to call this my community. My siblings have attended madrasah here and learnt so much, you always feel welcome attending prayers, and countless other goodnesses. But the thing that I appreciate the most, is how dignified they treat the deceased with their funeral services including storing and washing bodies aswell as transportation and sermon services. I am immensely grateful to Qari Abdul Wakil, Qari Yusuf, Maryam, Marouf and all other staff members of IICCUK.

Review of Umrah Trip with IICC
I recently had the privilege of completing my Umrah pilgrimage with the (IICC), and I am delighted to share my experience. The trip was exceptionally well-organized and meticulously planned, ensuring a smooth and fulfilling journey for all participants.
One of the standout aspects of this trip was the consideration given to the elderly and less able members of our group. The IICC team demonstrated remarkable empathy and care, ensuring that everyone’s needs were met with the utmost respect and attention.
Our professional guide was incredibly resourceful and knowledgeable, providing insightful information and support throughout the pilgrimage. The guide's expertise greatly enhanced our understanding and appreciation of the holy sites we visited.
The accommodation arrangements were exemplary, with hotels conveniently located within easy reach of the Haram in both Mecca and Madina. This proximity allowed us to attend prayers and perform our rituals with ease and comfort.
Travel logistics were seamlessly managed, allowing us to focus on our spiritual journey without any concerns. From transportation to meal arrangements, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of.
Our itinerary included a variety of well-planned activities. Upon our arrival in Mecca, we enjoyed a delightful breakfast at the hotel followed by some rest before performing Umrah. The second day was dedicated to personal prayers and exploration of the Haram and its surroundings, with our guide readily available for assistance.
We also had the opportunity to visit several significant holy sites in Mecca, including Masjid Bibi Aisha, Jabal-al-Noor, Mina, Arafat, and Muzdalifah. Each visit was deeply enriching, providing us with a profound connection to the history and spirituality of these sacred places.
Additionally, we were treated to a delightful day out in Jeddah, where we enjoyed shopping followed by a sumptuous meal at a lovely restaurant. The day was crowned with an amazing boat ride after Maghrib Salah, which was breathtaking. This truly remarkable experience was enjoyed by everyone in our group, which included participants ranging from young children to elderly members around 85 years old. We all loved the boat ride and were well attended to throughout.
When it was time to travel to Madina, the organization was impeccable. The level of care was outstanding, and during the journey, we had refreshments and managed to catch up on sleep. We also enjoyed a very educational quiz about the life of our beloved Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
Upon reaching Madina, we had a short roam around the hotel and then went to rest. The second day began with a tour of Masjid Nabawi. We visited the grave of the Prophet, and although no one is allowed inside, we got as close as possible to make dua and complete the Umrah rituals. We also visited many other significant holy sites in Madina, further enriching our spiritual experience.
This was the best trip of my life, and I am very happy that I was able to go with IICC (Islamic Integration Community Centre). Considering all the activities and efforts put in by the guide, this trip was very well priced too. It was not an easy task, but we managed to perform two Umrahs, and some even did more on their own.
I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved in organizing such an amazing event, especially Qari Saheb Yousuf for leading us. I also extend my gratitude to Qari Saheb Wakil for founding such an incredible organization. Thank you very much. May Allah SWT give you and your families endless blessings and make Hellfire Haram for you. Ameen.

I recently had the privilege of embarking on an Umrah trip organised by IICC, and I must say it was an absolutely enriching and heartwarming experience. From start to finish, every aspect of the journey was thoughtfully planned and executed with care.
One of the highlights of the trip was our guide Qari Yusuf, whose knowledge, patience, and compassion truly elevated the entire experience. His patience was remarkable, especially considering the diverse needs of our group. Whether it was helping the elderly navigate crowded areas, answering questions repeatedly with a smile, or providing encouragement during moments of fatigue, he consistently demonstrated exceptional care and empathy. The accommodations, transportation, and schedule were well-organised, allowing us to focus on our spiritual journey without any added stress. I would wholeheartedly recommend IICC to anyone seeking a meaningful, stress-free, and spiritually uplifting pilgrimage. Thank you, IICC, for an unforgettable journey of faith and connection.

Amazing mosque, great hospitality and great interior designs. By far one of the best mosques in West London by far.

I had the privilege of going on an Umrah trip with IICC, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

The trip was well organised, ensuring every detail was handled with care. The itinerary was well-planned, with a perfect balance between group activities and personal worship time.

From the very beginning, Qari Yusuf made sure to always answer any questions, making the journey both educational and inspiring. His deep knowledge of Islamic history and rituals were truly eye-opening and brought everyone closer to their faith especially when visiting ziyarah sites. Qari Yusuf’s ability to connect with everyone on a personal level, created an uplifting environment as he was very patient and wanted to support everyone’s needs.

This Umrah experience not only strengthened my connection to Allah (swt) but also deepened my respect for the effort that IICC put in serving their community and creating a memorable trip.

Thank you IICC 😊
