Jumu’ah Prayers
Everybody is welcome to attend. Please come in good time in order to avoid missing any of the Khutbah.
We have Jummah Khutbahs every Friday in the prayer room. Please see the Jummah times on our prayer timetable.
Central Oxford Masjid / Islamic Cultural Centre
This is the largest mosque in Oxford, situated on Manzil Way, just off Cowley Road. A popular choice for out-of-term Jumu’ah prayers and (if during term time) Eid prayers. It is probably the furthest mosque from the centre, being a 25 minute walk or 5-10 minute cycle.

Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies Mosque
The OCIS Mosque was opened in March 2016 for congregational as well as Jumu’ah prayers. The beautiful building blends the architectural features of the traditional Oxford colleges with the forms and styles of the classical period of Islam and is definitely worth a visit.

A very small (but conveniently located) mosque on Tyndale Road, just off Cowley Road. It takes approximately 10 minutes to walk, 5 minutes or less to cycle there. A popular choice for evening prayers due to the close proximity to Cowley Road.
