Faizan
E Madina is the largest purpose built Mosque in
East Anglia with a capacity of 3,000 worshippers,
this congregations was originally based at 60,Cromwell
Road, Peterborough which was the very first place
of worship in the city for Muslims, first established
in 1967
This page
is dedicated to 3 gentlemen who made a huge personal
contributions to the original Mosque
1) The
late Maullana Ghulam Jillani, the very first Imam
of the Mosque in Peterborough, he worked tirelessly
to set-up religious education for Muslim youngsters
in the city
2) The
Late Maullana Abdul Mustafa, he served the city
as an Imam for more than 20 years making many personal
sacrifices, he was also a friend and religious mentor
to me
3) The
late Chaudhary Maqbool Hussain, the former chairman
of the Mosque and the brainchild behind the establishment
of Faizan E Madina Mosque, unfortunately he passed
away before his dream became a reality
I am personally
indebted to all 3 gentlemen for providing me with
the religious, spiritual and moral guidance from
an early age, their teachings, guidance and influence
plays a huge part in my life every day, May Allah
