Eid at the mosque

Eid prayers

Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha follow the sighting of the new moon, so their dates — and the mosque’s prayer times and arrangements — are confirmed close to the day itself.

As soon as the mosque office confirms the details, they are published in the announcements above and available from the office directly on 0141 562 2951. No dates or times are listed here until they are confirmed.
