The Crawley Islamic Centre and Masjid (CICM) have come a long way since the centre was set up in 1978 by a handful of Muslim families in Crawley and based in a bungalow, which has now been demolished, on the site. CICM was registered as a charity & gained charity status on the 25th of August 1977. Since then the community has grown over the years and now Alhamdulillah over 700 brothers attend Jummah prayers regularly. As time moved on, CICM improved facilities to accommodate the increased attendance, by erecting 3 x temporary wood & glass based room extensions at 3 sides of the Masjid. Even with the extra space the brothers are forced to pray in the car park on Jummah in sometimes inclement weather conditions. CICM also represents the community at local and central Government level and has always endeavoured leading the Muslims affairs in the local borough. The Mosque is being completed in two phases. The first phase has been finished at a cost of £1.1 million. This comprised the construction of the main building and basement.

Within the sacred walls of the TIC (place of worship), our commitment transcends the traditional boundaries of religious practice. We view the TIC not only as a sanctuary for prayer and reflection but also as a refuge for travelers seeking solace. Our mission extends beyond the confines of the mosque, as we strive to share the profound beauties and truths of Islam with our friends and neighbors. We emphasize the importance of fostering positive relationships through kind words, proper etiquette, mutual understanding, and the universal language of tasty food. Our charitable objectives align with the core principles of Islam, focusing on the advancement of the religion in accordance with the Holy Quran and Sunnah. Additionally, we dedicate ourselves to educating Muslim children in harmony with Islamic tenets, fostering a future generation grounded in faith and knowledge. Furthermore, our commitment to charity is evident in our efforts to alleviate the suffering of impoverished and needy Muslims, embodying the compassionate spirit of Islam in tangible acts of kindness.
