Khadijah Islamic Center - Montreal

Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut odit aut fugit.

Years Experience

Sed do eiusmod tempor.

Khadijah Masjid (affiliated with IQRA Foundation) is registered as a non-profit charitable and socio-cultural organization addressing the issues of the Muslim community with the highest levels of integrity, professionalism, and transparency. The masjid has a floor space of over 9000 square feet, is able to accommodate more than 1000 worshippers, and is the home to many other religious and cultural activities. Montreal is the second largest city in Canada and the largest city in the Province of Quebec. It has a population of nearly 3.7 million, of which the Muslim community constitutes around ten percent. Statistics Canada has predicted that the Muslim population will nearly triple over the next twenty years; by 2030 the Muslim population of Montreal will be over one million. The majority of Muslims who have immigrated to Canada have not been here for a long time. Until now, only a few Islamic community centers have been established in Montreal. This is mainly due to a lack of financial means and limited joint support from local Muslim communities. Our initiative is to establish the foundation of “Khadijah Centre/Mosque” as an Islamic center which will bring added value to both the Muslim community and every resident in the City of Montreal.

HISTORY

By the mercy of Allah the Almighty, Khadijah Masjid was founded in 2002 by the efforts of IQRA foundation (A registered charitable organization in the province of Quebec since 1998). We began in a rented building at 2361 Centre Street, Pointe Saint Charles in the South-West borough of the Greater Montreal Island. The Masjid has now been relocated to 2385 Centre Street with a lease agreement term of twenty years. We hope to purchase this building and make it a permanent Islamic center.
