The Shah Jehan II Mosque

Woking, Surrey, UK

About

The Shah Jehan II Mosque in Maybury was the first mosque to be constructed in the UK. Invested by the Begum of Bhopal, one of Bhopal's few female rulers in the late 1890's, it was in fact built by British architects who collaborated with the Oriental Institute to design the first religious building of its kind. The call to prayer can be heard in the surrounding areas of Maybury and Sheerwater, both of which have high numbers of Muslim families, mostly from the Indian subcontinent.
