About Masjid Darassalaam
Masjid Darassalaam was established in 1995 to cater for the needs of the community of Peterborough in general and Muslims in particular. Current Muslim population in Peterborough is estimated at around 25,000. Following the success at Darassalaam and to meet demands in the West Town area of Peterborough, we purchased and established the Madina Madrassa and Spiritual Centre on Midland Road in 2014.
Since it is a public place, we welcome people of all denominations and religions so that they can see and experience the daily muslim rituals and activities carried out in a mosque. We also organise visits from the local schools so that students can experience the muslim prayer and other activities as part of their RE studies. We do however encourage visitors to respect the muslim faith and wear appropriate clothing.

One of the key objectives of our establishment is to serve the needs of youngsters. Since inception, Darassalaam has provided Islamic education facilities including Nazira programs, Hifz programs and daily two hour Islamic education in the evenings.
The same curriculum is also being offered to local residents at our Madina Madrassa and Spiritual Centre site in West Town area.
Our Mission
To inculcate the love of Allah and his Messenger, and provide an environment in which a child develops into a practising Muslim leading him to success in this world and the hereafter. All this while upholding the law of the land with sincerity and love towards all fellow human beings regardless of their faith or beliefs.
Our Madrassas were set up to provide basic but important Islamic Education to Muslim children, with the following aims:
- To inculcate the Love of Allah (swt), his Rasool (saw) and Deen in the children and a vivid concern for the hereafter.
- To equip the children with basic but vital Islamic Education.
- To promote Islamic values.
- To develop in children respect for parents, teachers and elders and tenderness towards those younger then them.
- To inculcate the Love for fellow Muslims and concern for the well being of humanity at large.
- To produce responsible adults who are confident in their identity as British muslims and who respect the law of the land and human values.
