Faizan-e-Madina Mosque

The Faizan-e-Madina Mosque is situated on Gladstone Street in Peterborough, England. It can hold up to three thousand worshippers[1] and its 30-metre green dome is thought to be one of the largest in the United Kingdom. It cost over £2.5m to build, which was raised entirely through donations (money and gold) only from the local community.[2]

The mosque is noted for the quality of its education and it has hosted leading Islamic scholars and teachers from universities including Egypt's Al-Azhar University.[citation needed]
