Bilal Masjid Trust(Greenford)

Bilal Masjid Trust (Greenford), formerly known as Greenford Islamic Welfare Association (GIWA), was established over 20 years ago on 15th April 2003. The primary purpose at the time was to provide a place for daily congregational prayers, Jummah (Friday) prayer and religious classes for Muslim children. However, nobody envisaged at the time that this was the birth of one of the key Masjid in Greenford.It commenced in 2003 by hiring a small garage behind the shops, which was situated at 1290A Horsenden Lane North. Then as the community grew and the demand increased, some key community Brothers & Sisters took the courage to purchase 2 Shops on Horsenden Lane North in March 2010, where Masjid is established today.In December 2014, the community took the opportunity to purchase a next-door shop where the existing Masjid is standing on 82-86 Horsenden Lane North. In 2018 - 2019 Masjid went through significant expansion work. At that time, we rented the properties for our Imams' accommodation and paid thousands of pounds each month on rent.We were actively looking for premises nearby where it is easy for Imam to travel to the Masjid. By the Will of Almighty, one of the upstairs flats came for sale, and Masjid grabbed the opportunity to purchase the flat. In March 2021, Masjid purchased a flat 88A Horsenden Lane North to accommodate our Imam. And the journey of the Masjid is still continued.
