The Tawfiq Masjid and Centre provides a much-needed Islamic place of worship, along with educational and community facilities for the residents of Barton Hill in Bristol, UK. More than one hundred young students and more than around 50 women are currently benefiting from this Centre, learning Islamic religion, the Quran and Arabic language.

As a community-based Muslim organisation within your locale, we find it imperative to convey a profoundly significant message. The recent acts of terrorism, attributed to groups such as al-Qaeda, ISIS, Boko Haram, and al-Shabab, are undoubtedly as shocking and unsettling to you as they are to us. However, our disquiet runs deeper; these heinous acts are unjustly and oppressively perpetrated under the guise of our faith, Islam.
