Britain's First Mosque | Documentary (by Mariah Idrissi) 

Alhamdulillah I became Muslim more than 20 years ago and I am doing great Dawah. I was an atheist but Allah S.W.T showed me the right path and everyone loves my Dawah.❤❤❤❤❤

I am connected with the Abdullah Quilliam masjid in Liverpool. Very proud of it.

Recently visited this mosque during jumah prayers nice place. Worth a visit. ☝🏼🇵🇸🇧🇩

A beautiful Masjid MaShaaAllah. I said my Shahada here back in 2006.

A Hungarian Jew ? Very interesting. Jews about a century ago saw Islam as a positive role model to reform Judaism

I wish you could talk more about the Indian Princess Shahjahan. Who funded the Mosque. She was quite a personality.

Alhamdulilah for Islam May Allah swt bless you sister Mariah. Very educative video. Watching from the Gambia 🇬🇲🇬🇲💕

Documentary done very well and educational

Ahhh thats my mosque. Its amazing and around the corner to my house

Mariah, barik Allah fik. Out of all of the influencers you have kept your hijab and are doing this wonderful work.

Fascinating and insightful

Abdullah Quilliam Society was funded by Crown Prince Nasrullah Khan, the son of Afghanistan Emir Abdur Rahman Khan, in 1895, exclusively for Sunni teachings.

Wowwwwww Allah Huma barik this is amazing I want the next day part now lol 🎉🎉🎉 ❤ well done 👍🏼 proud of you x

😊😊😊😍😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩😍 If the human intellect was sufficient, the Creator of the worlds (the Almighty ALLAH) would not have sent any of the prophets or any book The best golden age and pure Islam was the era of the Prophet and the four caliphs (rulers) after the Prophet (PBUH) In that time, the opponents of Islam killed the three caliphs of Islam in a row one after the other, and ended the golden and pure age of Islam, then the rest of the subsequent periods of Muslim rulers have no Islamic (Qur'anic) validities Later, the opponents of Islam always planned various efforts to stop and destroy the school of Islam until they were able to distort the meanings and interpretations of the monotheistic words of the Great Quran and create fake hadiths, different groups in the name and dress of Islam and changed the opinions of the majority of Muslims. So we are still observers and witnesses of these cases in Islamic societies The major and basic problem of the Islamic world is that the majority of people who call themselves Muslims are not dependent on the words of the Great Qur'an and authentic hadith but are only tied and dependent on Mullahs and Imam's speeches (there is a huge business among all religions) It should be said that the words and actions of me and you or of any others are not the manifestation and laws of the religion of Islam The real Islam is the granted words of the Great Qur'an and the authentic hadith of the Prophet (those hadiths which are in accordance with the school, spirit, and policy of the Great Quran, not in conflict and against to the Great Quran). But the opponents of heavenly religions and worshipers besides ALLAH The Almighty have always existed in human history. But they have been wisely brought to decline and destruction by Almighty ALLAH in their appointed time and period which ALLAH planned No kind of trickery and plot can change or take away the religion of Islam (the Arabic words of the Holy Quran) or make it fail. The religion of Islam (the Arabic words of the Holy Quran), which shines as a bright sun is not weak and defeated, but to the highest degree of stability, justice, perfection and knowledge, eloquence, science, courtesy, and logical expressions, explains the scientific facts of the system of creation in the times (present, past and future) for humanity Yes, dear ones / If one of the words of the Holy Quran was without science, justice, logical reasons, and wisdom, that word would be enough for the opponents of the Holy Quran to destroy Islam during the past fourteen centuries through media, publications, and news in the East-West of the earth Therefore, the opponents of the Holy Quran did not need to plan and create groups such as Shiites, Sufis, hypocrites, Taliban, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, etc., to defame and tarnish the religion of Islam in the garb of Islam. ALLAH Is The Greatest بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيم In the name of ALLAH, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَتْكُم مَّوْعِظَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَشِفَاءٌ لِّمَا فِي الصُّدُورِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةٌ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ‎﴿يونس: ٥٧﴾‏10:57 O mankind! There has come to you a good advice from your Lord (i.e. the Quran, ordering all that is good and forbidding all that is evil), and a healing for that (disease of ignorance, doubt, hypocrisy, and differences, etc.) in your breasts, - a guidance and a mercy (explaining lawful and unlawful things, etc.) for the believers.10:57 ------------------------- 😊😊😊😍😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩😍 But today we have to witness the actions and words of people and groups, because the hearts are under the possession of the creator of hearts. Human hearts are always changeable and can be inclined towards good or evil affairs / The end is hidden, no one knows which way the human heart will be inclined at the end of its lifetime except the creator of the world (The Almighty ALLAH) May you be good in affairs ، ALLAH is the Greatest

You failed to mention that Abdullah Quilliam received £2500 from an Afghan prince, Nasrullah Khan, for the purchase of the mosque, only to sell it a few years later, keeping the proceeds for himself. Subsequently, he assumed a new identity, adopting his dead best friend's name and marrying his wife. Additionally, you failed to mention that he died in destitution and was buried in an unmarked grave within the very mosque you went.

The Fazl Mosque in London was among the first to be built in the city..❤

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL THE GOOD CHRISTIAN HONEST PEOPLE

Proud to be a Muslim. Love from Italy 🇮🇹🤎

God bless 🇬🇧 amîn salam from 🇦🇹

SHAHJEHAN BEGUM VISITED THIS MOSQUE .....SHE WAS THE NAWAB OF BHOPAL INDIA

This short video is amazing that shed light on a story of an amazing woman not many of us heard of her . Now I’m going to research her story and learn more about her story and journey, thank you for sharing it with us.

Very nice community

However no matter how much people are pious practicing and modest they are not at all appreciated to talk one on one at gender difference when it comes to be muslims! Whether someone agrees or not we have to surrender and submit ourselves to the will teachings and directions of Islam!

Jazakallah khair, for enlighteing us. I am looking forward to next programme in this series.

Great documentary sister. Is this your channel ? Like to view more content from you.

Allahu Akbar islam is the right path way

Amazing 😍🔥🔥

Thank you for this insightful documentary ♥️

a touching tracing of history....Wonderful work

👍sis. AngloSaxon Muslims existed in Britain pre Spanish Inquisition. As more of humanity gets higher education I hope that there is more open mindedness & discovery. We humans are explorers and discoverers by design.

Mashallah ❤️

some of the names mentioned to read about to research your history and look for inspiration to be like Abdullah Quilliam WILLIAM BURCHELL BASHYR PICKARD muhammad marmaduke pickthall Shaikh Rahmatullah al-Farooq

Assalamu Alaikum. Greetings from Bangladesh.

Respect from India 💐

اللهم صل على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما صليت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم إنك حميد. اللهم بارك على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما باركت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيد.

It still gives me chills to recollect the horrible past (not a long ago) of this island when a bunch of people from this island occupied the whole planet just for looting, plundering and killing purposes. Verily Allah’s plans are the greatest.

Fascinating stuff! Thanks for creating. 🙂

This documentary unfortunately invisiblizes the Ahmadiyya Movement and the Lahori Ahmadi Mission in particular that was mostly based out of the Working Mosque, frequently under the guidance of Imam Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din.

Dear revert brother/sister in Imaan, I am very glad that you have recognised the truth God has revealed in the Quran and couldn't resist Islam. I am your brother all the way from India. I am a revert Muslim too. I hope and pray my advice helps you in your journey. I would like to advise you to take your deen primarily from the Quran and become more Quran-centric in your understanding of Islam. You may turn to Hadith to fulfill the obligations set by Allah such as Salah (Daily prayers), fasting, Hajj, charity, and moral goodness. But not when it tries to push Arabian culture as Islam, created sectarian mindset, and tries to demonise the character of the nobleProphet (Pbuh) or when it clearly contradicts the Quran. For people of sound intellect who like to think deeply, there are many aspects of Hadiths which appear quite spurious and even in direct contradiction with the Quran. You need to be particularly careful when certain stories found in the Hadith collection (compiled more than 200 years after the Prophet), portray the Prophet’s (pbuh) noble character in very poor light. I would advise you to not believe everything blindly because Muslims make you believe in those spurious stories with a lot of zeal, which they have been made to believe through years of institutionalised sectarian indoctrination. I would advise you to exercise caution when exploring the Hadith canon. But the Quran being God’s final revelation is fully protected from human corruption. However, while the other secondary sources of Islamic knowledge may contain some prophetic truth within it, but not believe everything which Muslims have been made to believe through these books is as pure as the Quran. Do bear in mind that Muslims are good people and are very sincere in what they believe about the Hadiths. So it's ok to avoid disagreements when it comes to issues which emerge from certain problematic Hadeeths. Even early Islamic history seems highly distorted due to these man-made ‘holy’ books and this understanding of Islam by new Muslims does create many problems for the Muslim community around the world. I pray Allah always guides you to HIS WAY, and not some sectarian way, made up by people after the Prophet left this world and that Allah keeps you protected from satanic deceptions in matters of faith. Ameen. In my 15 years experience, most Muslims are very Hadith-centric and expect reverts to follow Islam which is predominantly from Hadeeths and not the Quran. Most Muslims are only aware of the beautiful side of hadeeth corpus but are generally kept unaware of the problematic side so if if you blindly follow things which are not from the Quran, you may end up making all kinds of enemies for yourself especially your own family will find you very problematic. But it's not the case when you're more Quran centric in your understanding and practice of Islam. If you would like to have a zoom conversation to discuss these issues, do let me know. I would love to be of some help, purely for the sake of Allah and Allah’s deen.

MashaAllah🤲🏻

Blocking up roads parking on pavements causing inconvenience to residents 👎

This is not Britain’s first mosque. The ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat built the first mosque in the uk. Jazakallah

There's no British Muslim

How is Abdullah Quilliam related to today's organisation called quilliam?

Subhanellah Intersecting

Shah jahan mosque Woking was originally an ahmadi mosque I believe... I wonder why this isn't mentioned considering its an important fact.

Amazing Documentary. There is a possibility that Muslims in Britain might have been before 1889 because there might have been trade between Ottoman Empire and Britain. However not sure if there is a record which can prove this.

Hope everyone is well it is very unfortunate that we deem our success of how many masjids there are to a British Muslim and forget that majority of the ulama and masajids came into to exist due to hadhrat mawlana yusuf motala saheb رحمه الله Yep abdullah quillium may have took the initiative but spreading only happened through 2 main people mawlana yusuf motala رحمه الله of bury and hafiz patel saheb رحمه الله of dewsbury

Slms My understanding is the Mosque was built for the Shahs daughter while she studied in England. I’m not sure why this detail is being overlooked recently. I agree Islam, the last Abrahamic faith, advocates for equal rights especially during the times of slavery and subjugation. Mamaliq of London

Alhamdulilah....May ALL our MUSLIMS BROTHERS n SISTERS...around the WORLD is PROTECTED by ALLAH SWT....n PRAY that PALESTINE WILL BE FREE....

Hi wonderful story 🎉🎉🎉

We need to reawaken as muslims we have been sleeping for soo long.The true essence of islam- Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. 16:125

Good knowledge and best video

Zazakallah khair my lovely sis

What is missing? No proper Halal Legal credit unions or x Branches inasjids .

Alhamdulillah

interestingt that it led you back to Morocco the true inspiration for Abdullah Quilliam

What an inspirational and interesting piece. May Allah grant you many more opportunities to spread this information and dawah in shaa Allah. Thank you!

Are you making another episode on similar theme?

Visit Morocco ❤

Concise n educational documentary. Well done Sis Mariah. This mosque shows if humans want to live in peace, they can live even though having different faith.

Can the brothers make these documentaries instead? Fear Allah

The brother and sister are sitting far too close to each other especially inside the masjid. It would of been better if it was brother to brother or even sister to sister instead.

Brief and sweet. Stuff I was unaware of.

Have you seen on picture the art of mother Maria(on her hijab ),and Also king Edward painting ( on his kings clothes ) at WINA Museum, there is a psedou cuvic words that written ,that world mean Laa ila ha illalahu ,there is no God to Worshipped Only That Allah azzawajalla, so if you learn at that time the old ancient painter artist didnt know that words mean they just paint and copy the picture from original recources that come from old ancient, that mean a lot of history that we all don't know, happy to see islamic have helping and make a big movement to old ancient of Europe ,even ITS hiding from US all over this Century ,but for some peoples of seeking knowledge and truth ITS mean happyness and more Faith to us. We proud that if you all being a part to let it happened again in for better future Century of our generations and next generations ,may Allah bless ur day my brother and sisters

No more

Thank you Sister for sharing your travels and experiences. Beautiful video and knowledge. Ramadan Mubarak
