Following the government announcement of a short term lockdown, Green Lane Masjid will be temporarily closed for all congregational prayers, including the 5 daily prayers as well as the Jumu’ah (Friday) prayer.

As religious communities across the country continue to campaign for places of worship to remain open, at GLMCC we must act practically and swiftly in order to provide our community with the guidance they deserve. It is currently understood that while congregational worship has been banned, individual worship is still permitted.

During the shortened days of the Winter months, the five daily prayers fall within a few hours of each other. For this reason, we have decided that for those who happen to be nearby, and in urgent need of somewhere to pray, they may request access at Reception (via Door C, located on Green Lane). Each individual must sign in, sanitise their hands and will be allocated 10 minutes to complete their individual prayer, after which they must leave the premises. This must not be in congregation and you may not arrive in groups.
