Choosing Islam is a profound and life-changing decision, and we are here to support you at every step of your journey.
Our mosque warmly welcomes those who wish to embrace Islam, providing guidance, care, and a nurturing community as you take this important step.

Taking the Shahada

If you feel ready to formally embrace Islam, you can arrange a meeting with one of our Imams to take the Shahada (testimony of faith).
During the meeting, the Imam will:

  • Explain the meaning and importance of the Shahada.
  • Ensure you are making the decision willingly and with understanding.
  • Guide you through the declaration in a simple and heartfelt way.

Upon completion, you will receive a Shahada certificate as a record of this blessed moment.

Ongoing Support

Becoming Muslim is the start of a beautiful journey, and it is normal to have many questions along the way.
Our mosque offers support for new Muslims, including:

  • Personal advice from Imams and community members.
  • Access to introductory classes on prayer, belief, and Islamic practice.
  • Opportunities to build connections within the community through events and social gatherings.

Our aim is to help you grow in your faith with confidence, peace, and a sense of belonging.
