Sometimes referred to as Jamia Mosque, it is situated in the middle of Victoria Park, Manchester close to the Curry Mile.
[4] The Victoria Park Mosque began as two adjacent houses, one owned by the Syrian Textile Merchants operating in Manchester since the early 1900s,[5] and the other owned by the mainly Asian community living in the nearby areas of Rusholme and Longsight.
[citation needed] In 1971, the Jamiat-ul-Muslimeen, Manchester, commenced work on a purpose-built mosque in Victoria Park and the two houses were demolished and the "new look" Mosque took its current form.
[citation needed] This mosque acts according to the teachings of the Barelwi sect of the Indian subcontinent.
