Today

One day, five prayers

A day at the mosque follows the path of the sun. Scroll through today’s times.

  1. At dawn

    Fajrالفجر

    Before the sun rises over the rooftops of the Nordstadt, the day begins in prayer. In the stillness of early morning, the heart turns towards gratitude and quiet focus.

    Iqama
    07:10
  2. At midday

    Dhuhrالظهر

    Once the sun passes its zenith, the pace of the working day pauses for a moment of stillness. The midday prayer restores calm and perspective in the middle of daily life.

    Iqama

  3. In the afternoon

    Asrالعصر

    15:50
    Iqama
    16:00
  4. At sunset

    Maghribالمغرب

What should I wear when visiting, and what etiquette applies inside?

Please wear clean, modest clothing that covers your shoulders and knees; women also cover their hair with a headscarf inside the prayer hall. Shoes are removed at the entrance before stepping onto the prayer carpets, and mobile phones should be switched to silent.

Is there a separate prayer room for women?

Yes, the building at Eisenstraße 51 has a dedicated prayer room for women. In addition, the on-site car park is open to women attending Friday prayer.

Are there ablution facilities and step-free access?

When should I arrive for Friday prayer (Jumuʿa)?

Jumuʿa is held at 13:30 during winter time and at 14:30 in summer time. Because the Friday sermon (khutba) is an essential part of the service and precedes the prayer itself, arriving 15 to 20 minutes early is recommended.

There is a car park on the premises, which on Fridays is reserved exclusively for women, people with disabilities and the imam. Parking directly in front of or opposite the mosque on Eisenstraße or in neighbouring company driveways is prohibited; please use public parking along Bornstraße or Eisenhüttenweg, or take Stadtbahn line U42 to the stop Eisenstraße.
