North Manchester Jamia Mosque[1] is a mosque (Arabic: مسجد جمعيه شمال مانشستر ) in the Cheetham Hill area of Manchester, run under the headship of Qamaruzzaman Azmi by the Ibadur-Rahman Trust.[2] It is one of the largest Muslim centres in Europe.[3][4]
The mosque is open to all, and its main prayer halls currently hold between 2,500 and 3,000 people during a Friday service, with over 15,000 worshippers walking through the Mosque's doors during the multiple services held on the religious festivals of Eid.[1]
