Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies

A remarkable example of modern architecture inspired by culture. Excellent facilities and lovely building. Has the Kiswa of the Kaaba.

the mosque is beautiful to pray in, the facilities are excellent and the imam is very knowledgeable and gives excellent and relevant/pertinent sermons, just the right length of time.

An amazing new addition to the rich list of sites of interest in Oxford. The OCIS blends western styles of architecture with Islamic ones, managing in the process to celebrate the best of both, which is a truly remarkable feat. We were given a guided tour by the Bursar who is a mine of information and was able to describe the details of the various features and the contributions that each of the participating countries made to the project. The gardens are particularly attractive. They are not huge but the theme of the fusion of the two styles continues there with a sunken quintessentially English garden flanked by a more formal Islamic one but with water being the common feature link the two area, in a very successful and effective way. It's well worth a visit and in a good day you can continue your visit of Oxford down the footpath to Mesopotamia and the University Parks.

What a great evening and meal . Thank you for the organisation

The Masjid and the garden is fascinating. However, it does not feel like a Masjid environment which should be inviting, welcoming1- there’s time restriction. It’s not open all the time .we can only access the Masjid 15min before prayer2- children below 5 years old are not allowed . The guards would shoo you away if you come with a baby3- it is very hard to build and connect with Muslim community cause you need to rush to leave. If the Masjid is accessible any time then we as Muslim can connect and build a strong community

Beautiful building, open for prayers

Beautiful mosque. Didn't have any parking but 2min walk away you can park free for 2hrs.

very beautiful architect of building and all the facilities available for disabled people.

Great fusion of various architecture from the Muslim world. An outstanding addition to the historic buildings of Oxford.

Masha Allah masha Allah so much beautiful mosque and all the people of management are good in there work and behaviour.
