History

1993: The new Wembley Central Mosque

The vacant St Andrew's Presbyterian Church was bought by the charity funds of the Muslim community, and the money made from the sale of the smaller mosque, established in 1985 on Harrowdene Road. It took three years to complete the work.

1996: Single-storey extension

As the building was listed, the committee struggled to get building permission from the local council. It finally received permission for a single storey extension linked to the back of the mosque to create a brand new ablution area, offices and funeral services.

2009: Second expansion project

Meetings were held between the mosque committee, contractors, builders and also the council for permission.

2011

On 16 March 2011, Qur'an reciter Abu Bakr Shatri visited the mosque and made a Dua for the whole Muslim Ummah with the congregation joining in with him.
On 9 July 2011, Egyptian reciter Muhammad Jibreel visited the mosque on his UK tour sponsored by ‘Islamic Relief’. He led the Maghrib Prayer and then offered some Quran recitations in Murattal style.
