There are Ten Mosques in Bedford…
…and I just finished visiting all but one of them.
Some are large established Mosques in the town while others are new and upcoming. Some are geared towards a specific cultural community while others are more diverse.
Finding these Mosques is not always easy.
So, I created a map showing every Mosque and Prayer Rooms in Bedford, UK.
But, Who am I?
My name is Faisal. I am originally from Milton Keynes but recently moved to Bedford.
Having already created prayer maps for major cities such as London and Milton Keynes, I thought the next logical step would be to make one for the town I live in.
Moreover, I have provided Ramadan and Taraweeh information for each one.

Let’s take a look at each Bedford Mosque in detail.
Al-Falah Mosque
A diverse Mosque in Bedford. The khutbahs are in English, the only language spoken at the Mosque as far as i’m aware.
The Mosque has a separate entrance for men and women, and these are on separate roads. The men’s entrance is located on Priory Street while the women’s entrance can be found on Brereton Road.
I found out about this Mosque from someone on the Muslims of Bedford Facebook group.
The womens facilities are far better than the mens. The toilet and wudu area is clean and the size of the room is similar. Very few Mosques provide such facilities.
Women: Open to women
School: Shaafi (as far as I can tell)
Size: Two small rooms but space used well

Good recitation and lovely atmosphere. They hold Iftars on a Friday and Saturday. I went to one and the food was great. Only issue was there were no spoons that day!

Witr: Prayed the Shafi way sometimes with salam other times in one go.
Iftar: Provided every Friday and Saturday
