Our community is everywhere
Islamic history isn’t locked in museums or faraway lands. It’s beneath our feet, written into our streets, skylines and sacred spaces. From Ottoman domes to industrial alleyways, we trace the stories that shaped us — in places you know, but through a lens you’ve never seen.
London
Minarets behind red bricks
From West African freedmen to Yemeni dockworkers, London’s Muslim presence spans centuries. This city’s history is richer — and more Islamic — than you were ever taught.
Manchester
A Northern story with global roots
Textiles, trade, and the traces of a Syrian merchant buried in the city — Manchester’s past holds quiet signs of Muslims, hiding in plain sight.
Istanbul
Minarets rise, hearts follow
From Byzantine basilicas to Ottoman mosques, Istanbul is a living palimpsest of Islamic history. Curated by Istanbul Spiritual Tours, this guide uncovers a city where devotion, power and beauty are etched into every stone.
Lahore
The heart of poetry, power and piety
Lahore hums with baraka — in its poetry, its people, and the power of what endures. Every tile and alley holds a story shaped by faith, beauty, and resistance.
