Dawat-e-Islami is a global, non-political, Islamic organization working for the propagation of Quran and Sunnah throughout the world. It was established in 1981 by Hazrat Allama Maulana Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri Razavi Ziyae, who is one of the great Islamic scholars and spiritual guides of our time. Our mission statement is given by the founder Maulana Ilyas Qadri himself that “I must strive to reform myself and people of the entire world” and by the grace of Allah عزوجل millions of Dawat-e-Islami’s representatives are doing so that is becoming a source of religious and social reforms in the society.

We warmly welcome you to Raza Jamia Masjid (RJM). RJM officially opened its doors on 15th December 2017, following a construction period that spanned over two years and five months, having commenced in July 2015. The cost of the facilities amounts to approximately £8.5M and spans an area close to 42,000 square feet. Our mosque pays homage to Imam Aḥmed Raza Khan (ra), a revered scholar and reformer of the 20th century from the Indo-Pak subcontinent. The term 'Jamia' denotes a sizable public mosque capable of accommodating Muslims for Friday prayers. The mosque's establishment can be tracked back to 1969 when the first mosque of Accrington was instituted on Blackburn Road. In addition to facilitating daily prayers, we also run a community centre which aims to cultivate peace and promote community cohesion. RJM observes a 24/7 schedule, allowing Muslims the liberty to pray at their convenience. RJM has been entirely funded by public donations. Operating RJM necessitates significant care and maintenance. We invite you to contribute towards our efforts. Please click on the donation button should you wish to offer your support to RJM.
