Around 70 firefighters in 10 fire engines are battling the blaze at the Baitul Futuh Mosque in London Road.
People attending for prayers were evacuated from the building after the ground and first floors were hit.
Shocked onlookers gathered opposite the mosque, watching a dark plume of smoke billowing out of the building's roof, before they were ushered behind a police cordon.
Ambulance officials say one man has been taken to hospital with smoke inhalation but there are so far no other injuries reported.
Up to 10,000 people can fit inside the mosque but it is not known how many were in the building at the time.

Who do you think will pay to rebuild or repair?
Lloyd’s of London.
I don’t think Muslims believe in insurance. That is why obomacare has an exemption for medical sharing organization.

Now’s the chance to condemn the whole building and tear it down.

Maybe the Ferguson teens are on vacation and were just looking for a little fun.

Maybe they had a 13-year old clock maker in training, and he inadvertently touched the red wire to the green.
