Liverpool Muslim Society

The Liverpool Muslim Society is a muslim society in Liverpool, England. Founded in 1953 by the late Al-Haj Ali Hizzam, a member of Liverpool's Muslim Community, when it operated from a room in his house. The Al-Rahma mosque which the society operates has been at its present site since the 1960s, after extensions were made. On Fridays the mosque accommodates between 2,000 and 2,500 people. There are daily prayers and free meals, a day centre for the elderly, children's sporting clubs, and weekend Arabic lessons. The mosque also owns and manages two large houses in the L8 area of Liverpool, which contain a number of self-contained flats.
