Idaara Maarif-e-Islam or commonly known as Hussainia is one of oldest and most established Islamic institutions in the United Kingdom. Our first constitution was adopted on 13th August 1977. We are a registered charity (506755) with the Charity Commission of England & Wales.
By the Grace of Almighty, we have come a long way from our humble beginnings and have now grown to become one of the largest Shia (Ithna Asheri) muslim centres in the country. To better serve the community and cater for the natural growth in our membership list, the Idaara began an ambitious programme in 1996 to modernise our facilities to meet the emerging needs of a dynamic community.
A major milestone achieved since then is our current purpose built mosque and community centre where we now have adequate facilities for prayer, an extensive car park, fully equipped kitchen, full funeral facilities, a library and multiple community and educational programmes.[۱]
این مرکز به وسیله شیعیان پاکستانی مقیم بریتانیا تأسیس شده است تا از آن به عنوان پایگاهی برای فعالیت های تبلیغی و ارشادی به شرح ذیل استفاده شود: آموزش مسائل مهم دینی و اعتقادی به کودکان و نوجوانان، برگزاری مراسم و شعائر دینی و مذهبی به سرپرستی «حجه الاسلام بشیری».[۲]
