Services
Central Masjid is open every day of the year for people to use our prayer facilities, including all five daily prayers, and the special prayers for Ramadan and Eid. The prayer areas are accessible from 5:00 a.m. and close about half an hour after the last prayer of the day, ‘Isha.
​Congregational prayers
We hold congregational prayers at specific times, which you can find in our prayer timetable. There’s a more detailed explanation of our prayer times here. These prayers typically take 10–15 minutes.
​For Fajr, we open the main prayer area half an hour before the time set for the congregational prayer and it remains open for the rest of the day.
​​
On Fridays, the special Jumuah prayer (which replaces the Zuhr prayer) is preceded by a sermon (khutbah), which takes about an hour. It starts at 1:00 p.m.
​​
Facilities

There are separate prayer facilities for men and women: men pray in the ground floor and women in the second floor hall accessed through an outside staircase.
