Visit My Mosque



On behalf of the congregation and Events Committee of East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre, I would like to invite you to an Open Mosque Day, to be held on 5th February 2017 at East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre.

Our mosque is taking part in the national #VisitMyMosque initiative organised by Muslim Council of Britain (MCB). In the spirit of friendship and conversation, we hope to give members of the local community an engaging insight into the life of the mosque and to promote greater understanding of Islam. We anticipate welcoming local people from all walks of life to visit the mosque and meet with its diverse Muslim congregations.

The Mosque has a daily congregation of multi-cultural people and on Friday prayers, it attracts more than 300 worshippers. Its open and friendly approach draws visitors from schools and the public throughout the year. The open attitude of the mosque and its people make a major contribution in fostering interfaith and intercultural understanding within the local community. We very much hope that members of your Organisation will be able to attend. If you would be happy to pass on some invitations to your congregation and to display a poster in your reception area. I can send you these materials, or if at all possible perhaps I could attend a meeting within the next few days and invite the congregation in person?  If that would be possible I will bring some written invitations and posters for your members’ future reference.

We would be honoured to have your presence on the day between 10AM to 3PM. In particular, if you are able to arrive by 1PM we would like to invite you to observe the midday prayer.

Please contact me by telephone or email to confirm your attendance or for further information. If you are able to attend, please also let me know of any dietary requirements as well.


Yours sincerely,


Sirajul Islam
General Secretary
East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre
