Mr Mohamed's photograph has been circulated to ports and borders
Terror suspect Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed is being hunted by police after breaching his terrorism prevention and investigation measures notice.
The 27-year-old was last seen on Friday afternoon a the An-Noor Masjid and Community Centre in Acton, west London.
The Metropolitan Police said he was not considered to be a direct threat to the public, but advised anyone who saw him not to approach him and to call 999.
He is 5ft 8in tall, of medium build and is of Somali origin.
Mr Mohamed arrived at the mosque in Church Road, Acton, wearing Western-style clothing at approximately 10:00 GMT on Friday and was seen inside at 15:15 GMT.
CCTV images issued by Scotland Yard showed the suspect wearing a burka after leaving the mosque, with his face totally covered.
He has not been seen since.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said: "The Counter Terrorism Command immediately launched inquiries to trace Mr Mohamed and these continue.
"Ports and borders were notified with his photograph and details circulated nationally. Public safety remains our priority."
A court-imposed anonymity order banning the publication of Mr Mohamed's name was lifted on Saturday to allow police to make a public appeal for information.
Terrorism prevention and investigation measures notices - or TPims - were introduced in January 2012 to replace control orders. They restrict the subject's movements and activities.
