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.

Looks like barracks for soldiers on the left- or an armory.

There is an old ‘60’s saying — “Burn, Baby, Burn!”.

Notice how they’re NOT pouring water on the fire?
(only kidding folks)
I wonder if this was a Mosquerade party?
You dress up as a funky looking Jew and they try to burn you at the stake. Oops, missed...

In that case, the first responders should pull back and let the fire burn itself out. Keep pouring water on any neighboring buildings to keep the fire contained, just in an abundance of caution.

As long as the welcome mats burned, that’s the most important thing to me.

Can’t say I’m sorry to see smoke pouring out of something important to them.
