In recent weeks we have seen a worsening situation with Covid-19. Sadly, many people have lost their lives whilst others have been hospitalised due to the effects of this virus.
The Government has introduced new rules this month restricting when people can leave their homes. Alhamdulillah attending communal worship is still allowed.
At Noor Ul Islam, we hope to keep the masjid open. But to remain open we need to ensure we are doing everything possible to reduce the risk of worshippers contracting and spreading Covid-19. These include:
· The opening of the masjid only 15 minutes before the Jamaah time.
· Worshippers attending must wear face-coverings properly (nose and mouth must be covered – exemptions apply). They must also use the hand sanitiser on arrival and on leaving.
· Worshippers are reminded to bring their own prayer mat and bag to keep their shoes in. Please remember there are no Wudhu facilities available.
· Those over 70, young children and those with underlying health conditions should not attend.
· Under no circumstances should worshippers gather and mingle in or outside the vicinity of the Mosque.
· Worshippers should scan the NHS App QR code each time they visit or provide us with their details to Track and Trace purpose.
· There is now a two-metre space between worshippers. We recognise that this will reduce the numbers that we can admit.
· There will only be two Jummah prayers at 12:25pm and 2:00pm with very limited places.
We kindly request all those attending the Masjid to adhere strict to our safety guidelines and support our efforts.
We will continue to monitor and assess the situation and may make further changes at no notice, if needed.
Please do not leave home unless you have to.
We request your dua’s and help, especially during this difficult time. May Allah protect us all.
JazakAllaah Khayr

We hope that you will support us and make this transition work for all concerned.
We rely on our community to fund our progress. Now is as important as ever for you to continue supporting your Mosque.
