Masjid Hudah

1. Introduction

Masjid Hudah - Kichaka Mkwaju is a mosque and community centre located in Kichaka Mkwaju, Shimoni Road, Lungalunga, Kwale, Kenya. It was established in 1985 and has served as the spiritual heart of our community for over 40 years.

The mosque is more than a building. It is a place of worship, a school, a meeting place, a refuge for the vulnerable, and a source of hope for all. It is where we come together as one community — in prayer, in learning, in charity, and in service to one another.

The mosque is managed by an elected committee of 11 members serving for a term of two years (September 2026 – September 2028). The committee operates through two subcommittees: Internal Mosque Issues and External Community Issues.

2. Our Vision

To be a mosque that is not only a place of prayer but a centre of community life — serving every person regardless of religion, gender, age, or social status.

3. Our Mission

To serve Allah by serving His creation — through worship, education, charity, and community development.
