About This Book
The Role of the Mosque in Islam by Yusuf Islam explains why the masjid holds a place in a Muslim's week that no other institution does. It is where a Muslim renews his connection with his Creator several times a day and where he meets other Muslims and feels part of a wider community.
The first thing the Prophet (peace be upon him) built on arriving in Madinah was the masjid, and it served as a place of prayer, teaching, judgment and welcome all at once. The booklet looks at how much of that has been lost and how much a mosque today could recover.
