The Madina Mosque, also known as the Madina Masjid and the Wolseley Road Mosque, is the first purpose-built mosque in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England.[1]
Overview
After some problems with funding,[2] the project was completed in October 2006. Users of the mosque raised several million pounds to pay for the new mosque and Islamic centre which includes 19 rooms and two large halls, a library and a day centre. The project is estimated to have cost Template:GBP5 million.[1] The mosque was built on Glover Road, Sheffield, and intended to serve the Muslim populations of Nether Edge and Sharrow. The mosque has a capacity of 2,300 male and female worshippers.[3]
The organization, 'Muslims in Britain'[4] classify the masjid as, "Sufi - Bareilvi".[3]
In 2008 the BBC reported that the centre had classrooms and a planned daycare centre for the elderly, and that it would host inter-faith events.[2]
