Course Overview
IANL Finchley Mosque holds regular school visits for schools in and around the Barnet area.
We warmly welcome visitors from all backgrounds who wish to learn about Islam. Throughout the year, we receive visitors from various organisations and schools. Additionally, the Imam of the mosque can be invited to visit schools.
School visits typically last 70–90 minutes, depending on the number of pupils and the primary purpose of the visit. Visits generally include a tour of the facilities, a brief talk outlining the Islamic faith, and a “Question & Answer” session.
There are no fees or charges for visits. However, as the mosque is a place of worship, visitors are humbly requested to dress modestly.
