Ma Sha Allah What an amazing ambience,peaceful and hilly side masjid, Clean and tidy, Jazakallah
Big Mosque . Can struggle for roadside parking, but always manage. Next to desi food grocery shops. Overall I like the place.
Good mosque but it's hard for the women as they have to go upstairs via an eternal metal stairs. Parking can be difficult too as there is no dedicated car park. However the mosque from the men's perspective is good Alhamdulliah.
The entrance for women is at the back of the building, which is bad enough, however the entrance is via a fire escape! How is this considered acceptable? If the mosque can cater for men then it should be able to cater EQUALLY for women.
Mashallah there is great Islamic atmosphere in and around Masjid Umar. The brothers are welcoming, brilliant facilities including washroom with warm water, clean towels for drying and large pray area. It is easy to find and plenty local parking.
