**Jumuah Salah Times:

Assalamualaikum,

Alhamdulillah after three months we will be able to offer Jumuah salah in congregation again from this Friday. (10th July)

As a result of social distancing, there is capacity for only around 90 people in our Masjid at a time.

Therefore, we have decided to hold 3 separate Jumuah Salahs.

Attendees will be allowed in according to order of arrival.

The doors of the Masjid will be opened at 12.45pm and once the capacity is filled, attendees will have to wait for the next Jumuah to enter. We thank you in advance for your co-operation and understanding.

Sisters wishing to attend have been allocated space during the 3rd Jumuah. (2.15pm)

There will be no English Bayan before any Jumuah salah. After the Fardh salah, (no sunnah) attendees are requested to leave the Masjid immediately through the rear exit, following the one way system in operation. The whole Masjid needs to be disinfected before the next jamaat can be performed.

Therefore, please offer your Sunnah salah at home or elsewhere.

All attendees must:

1, Be over the age of 13 and not have underlying health conditions or suspected Covid-19 symptoms.

2, Perform wudhu at home. (Wudhu and Toilet facilities are NOT available at the Masjid)

3, Line up in an orderly manner, maintaining social distancing while temperatures are taken and attendees are permitted in.

4, Bring your own prayer mat.

5, Wear a face mask and sanitise your hands on entry.

6, Maintain social distancing at all times.

7, Refrain from socialising and standing in groups inside or outside the Masjid.

8, Adhere at all times to advice and instructions provided by Masjid volunteers.

Once again we thank you for your co-operation.

Please note: Although all effort has been made to follow the government’s Covid-19 policy, the Masjid cannot accept responsibility for any individuals.
