Mosques

Newcastle upon Tyne offers a network of prayer places for Muslims, with several listed mosques and prayer rooms spread across the city and neighbouring areas. The mapped records show a notable concentration in the west of the city, particularly around Grainger Park Road and Meldon Street, where Newcastle Central Mosque and Bilal Jamia Masjid are located. Further west, Al-Raza Mosque on Benwell Lane serves the Benwell area. These locations, along with Bahr Academy on Sceptre Street, provide a visible prayer-place presence in the city's western sectors.

Across the River Tyne in Gateshead, the Bensham neighbourhood hosts Al-Furqan Mosque on Villa Place and Shah Jalal Masjid on Coatsworth Road, both within 2 km of the city centre. A Friday Prayer (Jummah Salah) is also listed at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Gateshead, indicating provision for hospital staff and visitors. The data also includes mosques in South Shields, such as Al Azhar Mosque on Laygate, South Tyneside Jame Masjid on Baring Street, and Baitul Ma'mur Sunni Jame - E Masjid nearby, showing a prayer-place network extending to the coast.

Further afield, listed mosques appear in Sunderland (Masjid e Anwaar e Madinah), Hartlepool (Nasir Mosque, Jamia Masjid Muslim Welfare Association, B.C.A. Masjid), and Stockton-on-Tees (Farooq E Azam Mosque, Jamia Masdij Usman e Ganih Mosque, Jamia Al Bilal Mosque, Jamia Masjid Ali Al-Murtadha Islamic Centre, Stockton International Community Centre). While these are outside the immediate city, they serve Muslims commuting or residing in the wider Tyne and Wear region. This mapped coverage, based on available records, helps Muslims locate prayer facilities across Newcastle and its surrounding towns.

Check the address and distance of each mosque before visiting, as some listed locations are up to 50 km from Newcastle city centre. Contact details and opening hours are not provided in this listing; verify directly with the mosque. Many mosques have dedicated websites or phone numbers that can be found through local directories.
