The Aberdeen Mosque and Islamic Centre (AMIC) is the main mosque and Islamic center in Aberdeen, Scotland.
History
The mosque was founded by a small number of University of Aberdeen students and some local business people in 1980.[1] Initially the mosque was located in a small house beside the university. As the Muslim community grew bigger, two adjacent houses were brought to accommodate the growing number of worshipers.[2]
