Aziziye Mosque

The Aziziye Mosque (Turkish: Aziziye Camii) is a mosque in Stoke Newington, London, United Kingdom which serves mainly the British Turkish community. The mosque was funded by the UK Turkish Islamic Association and the conversion began in 1983. Turks who had once felt reluctant to attend a ‘non-Turkish’ mosque welcomed the congregation as services were provided in the Turkish language rather than in English or Arabic. The total capacity of its Ottoman style mosque is 2,000 people. The mosque also has a Halal butchers, Aziziye Education Centre (weekend schools), Aziziye Wedding hall and a restaurant.
