Today

When you move to a new place, one of the things to locate is the mosque or Islamic Centre. I went for Jumma Namaaz to NWKIC - North West Kent Islamic Centre in Crayford. This was originally a Church now converted into a mosque. This is a common occurance in the West as the number of active Churchgoers has gone down.

Anyway, it is about 8 min drive from my house and the jamaat was pretty good.

It seems the community here has a majority of Bangladeshis. But thankfully the khutba was in English, unlike Norwich where the whole taqreer would be in Bangla.

We also watched the movie 'The Message' with Urdu dubbing today. It is perhaps the best movie/documentary on Islam I have ever seen. Ammar loved it too.
