We highlight different factional interests among Muslims according to some fairly broad mainstream categories, "Bareilvi", "Deobandi" etc. This is euphemistically defined as the masjid's 'Theme', and you may find this contentious. It is a point of principle among most conscientious Muslims that the community is a single entity. While that is a noble sentiment, it is patently obvious that there are clear divisions between Muslims and between masaajid, based on religious and ethnic differences. While many Muslims are content to use any masjid, many others make careful choices about where to go. And for those who would like a change, the information will help you pick somewhere different.

Any masjid is certain to have users who follow different practices, and this is something to appreciate (unlike other religions which are unshakably denominational). However where a doctrine dominates, that will clearly influence what is practised at that location.

Data Accuracy:
Unsure (D): Several sources of information about the masjid, but none of them recent and reliable.
Some of our address lists date back to the late 1970s and for some of those, even the street no longer exists! So we have started to include a Confidence indicator. This is rated A to F, with roughly the following meanings.
