UPDATED: insha’Allah, the East London Mosque is set to open again from Wednesday 2 December 2020, for all five daily prayers.

We will maintain the previous safety measures:

  • the Mosque will open 15 minutes before each jamā‘ah, and close straight after
  • do not come if you have any of the symptoms of COVID-19
  • everyone must wear a mask covering both the mouth and nose
  • you must use a prayer mat in the marked spaces (bring one with you), to maintain distancing
  • you must do your ablutions before coming to the mosque
  • no children under the age of 12
  • we strongly advise those over 70 or those with health vulnerabilities to pray at home
  • at all times, maintain distancing and be mindful of your safety and the safety of others

The current Government limits are 15 for weddings and 30 for funerals.


We need your kind support to help us keep our vital services running. Please give in sadaqah whatever you can afford.
