Alhuda is a Muslim association based in Hanover that primarily serves as a mosque and acts as a religious, social, and cultural center for the Muslim community in the region. The institution sees itself as a place of prayer, education, community, and integration.
Our main task: The mosque as the centerpiece
At the heart of the association's work is the mosque – a place of spiritual reflection, communal prayer, and religious orientation. In addition to the five daily prayers, the Friday prayer (Jumuʿa), Tarawih prayers during Ramadan, Eid celebrations, as well as regular Quran recitations and Islamic lectures also take place here.
