About Us

The Jamatia Islamic Centre (JIC) is situated at the heart of the Muslim community in Birmingham, and attracts many worshippers from across the West Midlands region. Since its inception in the late 1970’s, the JIC has gone through several phases of structural development and progress. Initially designed as a semi-detached residential property, the building has now become an iconic symbol for the local community and is continuously striving to grow as a centre of excellence. Our aim is to create an environment of unity by providing all people with vital services and assistance, and in particular cater to the religious, social and spiritual needs of Muslims living in the west. In recent years the number of services being offered by the Masjid has increased, and following our last major renovation we now accommodate more worshippers than ever. At present, we provide our congregation with the following services:

• Fully segregated Wudhu and Prayer area offering a combined worshipping space for almost 1000 people!
• Radio broadcast system
• Marriage (Nikah) service
• Bereavement facilities
• Car park and CCTV security
• Regular educational programmes for Brothers & Sisters of all ages 

Our Vision:

Ultimately the purpose of JIC is to bring people closer to Allah by equipping them with the necessary skills to serve society and humanity at large. We aim to achieve this by promoting the pristine teachings of Islam, using a tradition that has been protected through many generations from one pious heart to the next in an unbroken chain of transmission. By teaching our faith in this pure and preserved form, the JIC will allow individuals to come closer to its essence, free from the confusion often embedded within the media, culture and modern day society. Given the fact that British Muslims constantly face negative stereotypes on a daily basis, we feel the best way to overcome these difficulties is to provide beneficial knowledge so that the teachings of our beloved Prophet (May peace and blessings be upon him) can flourish in the near and distant future.
