Consequences of Teaching Violence

We are devoted to disseminating to the world, Islam as a simple and tolerant religion. Islam as it was practised by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), unconditionally the last prophet. We believe each individual has the right to decide, declare and propagate his beliefs and that Jihad, as a continuing effort for self-improvement and propagation of Islam, is a prime duty of every Muslim.

Our main aim is to present Islam in its true, original light, as a peaceful, tolerant, spiritual and rational religion. We seek to show how the spiritual and moral teachings of Islam are vital to the modern world, and how Muslims can live harmoniously in the modern world alongside people of other beliefs and views. Our U.K. branch is a continuation of the Woking Muslim Mission founded at the Woking Mosque (Surrey) in 1913, as the Woking Muslim Mission.
