About the centre · Isiolo

Centuries of wisdom meet contemporary community life.

Al Istiqamah Centre is more than a place of prayer. It is a welcoming home where Islamic learning, mentorship, sport and meaningful conversations help every generation in Isiolo thrive.

Our purpose

Knowledge builds character. Faith gives it direction. Community turns it into service.

Rooted in the Qur’an and Sunnah, the centre exists to keep worship, learning and service at the heart of everyday life in Isiolo — for elders, parents, young workers and children alike.

“Whoever treads a path in search of knowledge, Allah will ease a path to Paradise for him.”

Worship

Daily salah and Jumu’ah in the heart of Isiolo

Learning

Qur’an and Islamic studies for every age

Service

Youth, families and community initiatives

Programmes

Three paths, one community.

Every programme is open to the whole community — members and visitors, young and old.

Worship in Isiolo

A welcoming house of prayer for the whole town.

Daily salah, Jumu’ah and moments of reflection for Isiolo’s residents, traders and travelling families — a calm, orderly place where anyone can step in, pray and feel they belong.

Learning for life

Qur’an and Islamic studies rooted in daily reality.

Classes connect faith with school, work and family responsibilities. Learners of every age study at a pace that fits life across Northern Kenya — herding seasons, market days and exam terms included.

Isiolo youth & families

Mentorship and positive activities for the next generation.

Mentorship circles, family gatherings and safe activities help young people build confidence, character and belonging — with older youth guided to become mentors themselves.

Take part — there is a place for you here.
