Saturday 10 October 2026 at the masjid on Revesby Walk: the prayer hall at Dhuhr, the library, the classes of Madrasah Al Furqan, and the building at dusk.

2 Revesby Walk

The building was once the Vauxhall Sports and Social Club. The charity bought it in 2019 and turned it into a masjid; before that, from 2007, the masjid was at the Garrison Centre on Garrison Lane. Our story

The wudu area: white tiles from floor to ceiling, taps along the wall and a low seat at each
Low round seats with yellow tops in a row beneath the taps of the wudu area

الوضوء

Wudu

Taps along the wall and a low seat at each, in white tiles from the floor to the ceiling.

The prayer hall, empty: red carpet in rows leading to a marble wall around the mihrab
The mihrab, set in a marble wall, beside the minbar
The minbar, its front carrying the masjid's name and logo

المصلى

The prayer hall

Red carpet laid in rows, and at the far end a marble wall around the mihrab.

The minbar, the masjid's name on its front.

The same Saturday, the hall full: standing, bowing, and in sujud.

A row of red and gold bound volumes, their spines lettered in Arabic

Madrasah Al Furqan

The masjid's own madrasah. This class sits round its teacher on the carpet while he reads to them from a book.

Six days a week, with no classes on Friday. About the madrasah

In the large hall

Another class, and a teacher with a microphone.

A question, and the hands go up.
