Based on available mapped records, the city itself contains at least two listed prayer places: Al-Amal Masjid on Rue du Libre Examen and Aim El Fath on Rue du Chimiste. These are complemented by numerous Islamic centres in neighbouring communes, reflecting a well-established prayer-place presence across the broader Brussels area.

Within a short distance from Anderlecht, several prominent mosques serve the region. The Brussels Grand Mosque & Islamic Cultural Centre of Belgium, located at Parc du Cinquantenaire in Brussels, is a well-known landmark. Other notable centres include Centre islamique El Mouhsinin in Saint-Gilles, Centre El-Hikma La Sagesse in Forest, and Moskee Ettawhid in central Brussels. The listed prayer places are concentrated in areas such as Brussels city centre, Schaerbeek, Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, Ixelles, and Evere, making it convenient for Muslims living or working in these sectors to find a nearby place of worship.

For those in Anderlecht, the proximity to these diverse Islamic centres means that daily prayers, Friday congregations, and community activities are accessible within a few kilometres.
