Mosques of Victoria

Greater Dandenong has dozens. Baw Baw Shire has one.

Across Melbourne's suburbs, mosques sit kilometres apart. In Gippsland, the nearest mosque to Warragul is 45 km away. That gap is what this campaign exists to close.

Heading east?

Warragul is the last masjid before the road gets quiet.

Working out east for the day or driving the family up to Lakes Entrance for the weekend? Daily prayers, Friday Jummah, wudu, women's area and parking are 4 minutes off the M1. No need to plan around it.

The map tells the story

We are the only mosque for 45 kilometres.

Not because Muslim families don't live here — they do, and the community is growing. Because no one had built one yet. We did. Now we're raising $800,000 to buy the building permanently and keep it that way for our kids.
