Assalamu ‘alaykum dear friends,

Join us for a joyful, faith-filled outing as we visit Dar Al Taqwa Bookshop in the heart of London! Let’s come together to support one of our community’s treasured bookshops — a place filled with knowledge, inspiration, and the sweet smell of new books.

Whether you’re looking for a new Islamic read, a meaningful gift, or simply want to uplift a local Muslim business, this is the perfect opportunity. Bring your enthusiasm, your book-loving spirit, and maybe a tote bag… just in case!


📚 Stop 1: Dar Al Taqwa Bookshop

🕒 Time: 10:30 am

📍 London, UK

Let’s browse, buy, and boost the barakah together!


🍽️ Stop 2: Brunch at Shakeshuka – Baker Street

Because what pairs better with books than good company and great food? We’ll enjoy a relaxed lunch at Shakeshuka, sharing laughs, flavours, and maybe some book recommendations too.

✨ Everyone is welcome — families, friends, and fellow book lovers!

Let’s make it a memorable day of community, charity, great books, connection, and delicious food.
