The newly constructed, three storey Central Jamia Mosque Ghamkol Sharif is one of the largest mosques in Europe, with space to accommodate nearly 5,000 worshippers. The mosque is named after a Sufi Saint, Ghamkol Sharif, whose followers are concentrated in Birmingham. In a joint programme with the Birmingham Central Mosque and Birmingham City Council, the Central Jamia Mosque works to address the chronic unemployment of some Asian immigrants who suffered from the industrial downturns from the 80s.
