Faizul Quran Jamia Mosque

Charity 1093465

Overview

Summary

Sources:Civic AtlasAI-assisted

Faizul Quran Jamia Mosque appears to operate as more than a place of worship: it is a community anchor combining religious practice, children’s education and access to shared facilities. Its stated remit is unusually broad, spanning faith, education, health-related recreation and sport, while its beneficiary groups include people across age and disability categories. The available evidence suggests a locally rooted institution with potential to convene and support Birmingham’s surrounding Muslim community, though its wider services and partnerships are not yet clear.

Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Lozells

Confidence: low

Direct evidence identifies mosque-based activity in Lozells and describes its prayer programme, Friday and Eid services, and children’s holiday schools as serving the local community. However, the available evidence does not directly establish ward-level operation. The available evidence identifies no other active delivery site.

  • Charity Commission register, FAIZUL QURAN JAMIA MOSQUE (charity 1093465), current contact and activity record
    Describes mosque activities including congregational prayers, Friday sermons, Eid prayers, and summer and winter schools for children.
  • Charity Commission register, FAIZUL QURAN JAMIA MOSQUE, reporting year ended 31 March 2025
    States that the mosque's activities are open to the community and that its holiday schools are popular with the local community.
  • Lozells Central Mosque application listing, Google Play
    Identifies Faizul Quran Jamia Mosque as the app developer; the app provides prayer and iqamah times, supporting the interpretation that this is an active mosque site rather than only a correspondence address.
Remaining uncertainties
  • The Charity Commission records Birmingham City as the charity's local-authority area of operation, but this does not establish routine service delivery across Birmingham. It is better treated as an administrative area-of-operation declaration than evidence of a citywide operational footprint.
  • There is no current evidence of satellite venues, outreach delivery in other wards, or partnerships that materially extend the mosque's operational reach.
  • The available evidence does not establish the geographic catchment of worshippers or holiday-school participants; people may travel from beyond Lozells, but this is not evidence that the charity operates in those areas.
  • The organisation has no accessible primary website in the supplied record, limiting confirmation of current programmes, venue use and partner activity.
Additional evidence needed
  • A current programme, timetable or annual report identifying any activities delivered away from the mosque.
  • Confirmation from the organisation of whether it operates, hires or regularly uses any additional buildings, sports facilities or education venues.
  • Current information on formal delivery partnerships, including the locations and nature of any jointly delivered services.
  • An anonymised breakdown of participant catchment or service locations, if the organisation wishes to evidence an operational footprint beyond Lozells.

Observations

Sources:Civic AtlasAI-assisted

  • A mosque with a broad civic remit

    The organisation appears to use the mosque as a platform for both religious life and wider community benefit, rather than treating worship as its sole function.

    Why it matters

    This suggests it may be an important local access point for community activity, information and support, with relevance beyond formal religious services.

    Show evidence

    • “The charity's objects include advancing religion, advancing education, promoting healthy recreation through sports facilities, and building and maintaining a mosque for the local and surrounding Muslim community in Birmingham.”

      Source:Charity Commission

    • “The charity states that it provides buildings, facilities, open space, services, advocacy, advice, information and human resources.”

      Source:Charity Commission

  • Children's education may be a central connection point

    Holiday schools appear to create a recurring relationship with local families, potentially making the organisation an intergenerational institution rather than one serving only adult congregants.

    Why it matters

    Organisations with sustained contact with children and parents can be especially significant in transmitting knowledge, building trust and identifying wider family needs.

    Show evidence

    • “The mosque provides summer and winter schools for younger children during holiday periods.”

      Source:Organisation

    • “These schools are described as very popular with the local community.”

      Source:Organisation

  • Its declared scope is wider than its described activity

    There may be a gap between the charity's broad stated purposes and the activities currently described, particularly around disability, poverty relief, health, arts, sport, research and advice.

    Why it matters

    This could indicate unrealised capacity, activities not captured in the available account, or areas where clearer partnerships and public information would help others understand its contribution.

    Show evidence

    • “The charity lists health, disability, poverty relief, arts, amateur sport and research among the areas in which it works.”

      Source:Charity Commission

    • “The described programme includes prayers, Islamic calendar events, congregational prayers, Friday sermons, Eid prayers and holiday schools.”

      Source:Organisation

    Remaining uncertainties

  • Whether sports, health, disability, poverty-relief, arts, advice or research activity is delivered directly, and at what scale.
  • Which local organisations, schools or community groups the mosque works with.
  • How accessible its buildings, services and educational activities are for people with disabilities and non-Muslim residents.

    Additional evidence needed

  • Recent annual reports or activity records showing services, participant numbers and outcomes beyond worship and holiday schools.
  • Information on partnerships, facility use, accessibility arrangements and the communities reached.
