1985–2000: The New East London Mosque

London Muslim centre rear view
The mosque was the first in Britain to broadcast the Adhan (call to prayer) from the Minaret using loudspeakers. It had a capacity of up to 2000, with prayer areas for men and women, and classroom space for supplementary education. However, by the 1990s the capacity was already insufficient not only for the growing congregation but also for the range of projects based there. The land next to the mosque had been left vacant after bomb damage during World War II, and was used as a car park. The mosque launched a campaign to buy the land, and the purchase was completed in 1999.
