History

  1. The idea of building the masjid and the Salfia Centre came into existence in the early eighties when many Muslim families took residence in the area. It was felt that there was a strong need to provide Islamic and spiritual education for local Muslim children. Thereafter an association was formed with view to providing suitable facilities.
    The founding members of the masjid were predominantly mill workers who lived in the Scouthill area of Dewsbury.
