Today’s times for Auckland, updated live
Guidance, mentoring and community
Every Qur’an we send is paid for by donors
Today in Auckland
Calculated for our location in East Tāmaki, so the times move with the date and with daylight saving without anyone having to update a page.
These are calculated times. Congregational prayer at your local masjid may be set a few minutes later, so please follow your masjid’s own timetable for jama’ah.
Voice of Islam delivers the message of Islam based on the teachings of the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
We do not promote any political, national, ethnic, social or class perspective. Our focus is purely da’wah — conveying the message — and deen-al-Islam, the faith as a way of life. That single purpose is why our door is open to anyone, Muslim or not, who wants a straight answer.
The work began as a television programme and grew into an outreach organisation with a full-time office in East Tāmaki, partner groups across Auckland, and reach into the Fiji Islands and Ghana.
Office staffed for anyone who wants to learn about Islam
What we do
Everything here is free to the person receiving it, and paid for by donations.
The Qur’ans, the booklets and the teaching are all free to the person receiving them.
Call the office and talk to a person. No booking, no forms, and no pressure.
We post a Qur’an with an English translation to anyone who asks, anywhere in New Zealand, at no cost and with no obligation.
Guided study for people starting from nothing: what Islam teaches, who Allah is, what the Qur’an says, and how a Muslim actually prays.
Taking shahadah is a beginning, not an end. We connect new Muslims with a mentor, a local community, and practical help through the first year.
Our programme is broadcast in New Zealand and Ghana and streamed worldwide. Every episode stays online, free to watch.
Booklets and pamphlets answering the questions people ask most, distributed through mosques, schools, prisons and community stands.
With our partner groups we help with food packs, funeral services and support for families in hardship, in Auckland and overseas.

Learn Islam
Most people who contact us have never read a page of the Qur’an and would rather ask a person than a search engine. This is the order we usually suggest. Work through it on your own, or ask us to sit with you.
The core belief, in plain language, before anything else
Oneness, mercy and justice, and what that means day to day
What it is, how it was revealed, and how to start reading it
His life, his character, and why Muslims follow his example
Faith, prayer, charity, fasting and pilgrimage
Step by step, including washing, timing and what is said
You do not need to book, register, or know any of the words. If you have recently accepted Islam we will connect you with a mentor and a local community.
O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.
Surah al-Hujurat, 49:13
