Reviving Our Architecture:
The Restoration Project
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Central Mosque Rochdale stands as both a spiritual sanctuary and an architectural marvel within our community. As stewards of this blessed space, we are embarking on a significant restoration project focusing on the mosque’s roof and minaret—elements that not only protect our place of worship but also contribute to our environmental responsibility.
Sustainable Restoration Initiative
Our restoration project combines traditional Islamic architectural heritage with modern sustainable solutions. The project honours our responsibility as caretakers of both our sacred spaces and the environment Allah has entrusted to us.
Our Restoration Vision
Our dedicated team of craftsmen will meticulously implement:
- Solar Panel Integration: Installing high-efficiency solar panels on appropriate roof sections to generate clean energy for the mosque, reducing our carbon footprint and energy costs
- The Minaret: Restoring weathered sections
- Roof Structure: Reinforcing the supporting framework while preserving the original architectural integrity established by our community founders
- Weatherproofing: Implementing modern conservation techniques
- Energy Efficiency: Incorporating sustainable materials and insulation
Community Participation
This project represents more than mere renovation—it embodies our collective responsibility to maintain our sacred spaces whilst embracing sustainable practices. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah will build for him a similar house in Paradise.” (Sunan Ibn Majah 738)
We invite our community to participate in this blessed endeavour through:
- Contributing to our restoration fund as an ongoing charity by visiting the Masjid office or via our online donation portal:
https://centralmosquerochdale.com/donate - Making a sincere Duaa to Allah that He accepts this work and allows for its safe completion
The photographic journey of our restoration will be shared regularly on our website, allowing the community to witness the transformation of our beloved masjid’s roof and minaret and the installation of our sustainable energy solutions.
May Allah accept our humble efforts in maintaining His house of worship, and may it continue to stand as a beacon of faith, community, environmental stewardship and architectural excellence for generations to come.
