👍 The place is great. There is construction going on but it’s an old church converted into a mosque. People often mention mosque, prayer, masjid,

    This is my spiritual home. Nowhere else gives me as much peace, purpose or personality. Alhamdullilah, the brothers here help people from all walks of life, backgrounds, and national origin to feel welcome, appreciative, and as part of the Jamat. I spend all of my time here when not at home or with another client. Come for prayer, connection with our Creator SWT, or for amazing conversation... And leave with emense inner peace

    Very peaceful place. Good parking space, security personal on site to help guide the vehicles. Friday Khutbah started on time. Covid regulations (6 feet apart and make) were in place.

    This is a very special place. The people are from so many different backgrounds. They represent every age group. It is sanctuary for the new believer and the generational inheritors of faith. All are welcome.

    Jami masjid is the most diverse masjid I have had the pleasure of visiting. The energy and brotherhood there is very rare. I imagine anyone who visits once will immediately understand what I mean inshallah. May Allah guide and protect everyone reading this inshallah. Salam alaikum

    I will give 5 stars for the masjid for sure but my access was denied cause I came out of the service hours. I was traveling across the borders and wanted to pray so i had to pray somewhere else in the street. I hope this can be accommodated another time ❤️ I loved the masjid and was excited to see it from inside 😢

    Amazing mosque with a beautiful community that is very caring and active in the community. Strangers don't feel like strangers there because of how welcoming they are. Definitely recommend stopping by the masjid.

    Giving 1 star with heavy heart only because of the horrible place for ablution it was in the basement and messy and unhygienic. Outside and prayer hall was OK.

    The bond shared among sisters is truly unmatched, the sisterhood is remarkable and awe-inspiring. The presence of these amazing sisters fills my heart with an overwhelming sense of love, warmth, and tranquility. Mashallah, may Allah shower His love upon these remarkable sisters and keep sheitan away from them!❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️

    This message is for you, the exhausted volunteers at the Jami masjid today. May Allah swt TRULY bless and accept your efforts.ameen. It was a beautiful event. I saw many many smiling faces mashallah and I can bet you for many many people this might have been their first celebration for Eid. There was no pushing/shoving at the food lines. No entrance fee for the families and kids. It was free to get their face painted, get balloons, henna, cotton candy, multiple bouncy houses, and even the petting zoo. To top it off, plenty of FREE food and drinks for everyone. The barakah was there. I felt it along with sisterly love. Personally, I'm so touched and humbled by the generous organizers. Maybe others have seen a masjid/organizer like this before, but I haven't. Subhallah. May Allah swt reward you guys truly!!!! It takes a lot of effort to put together an event like that, especially at this large capacity. Even more so when it's volunteer run..may you unicorn Muslims forever exist in this world. Ameen. Full disclosure: this message is not sponsored lol

    This mosque is not “open 24/7” as shown on google. Was traveling and dropped by to pray (between Dhuhr and Asr) with family but doors were closed when we arrived. Sign on door say doors only open 15 minutes before prayer time. Eventually we made it in (after waiting for about 15-20 minutes outside ) a young man playing in the back managed to get us in. However he was not able to open the women’s entrance (they ended up coming through another entrance and crossing through the Mens prayer hall to get to the women’s section). In the meantime to avoid all this trouble I suggest to people who are traveling and need a place to pray please check prayer times and arrive accordingly at this mosque. The young man who let us in was apparently told by someone (management??) while we were praying there to “next time check prayer times before coming and we are not allowed in the mosque outside of prayer times”. Note to management: I understand your need to look doors for security, but for such a huge mosque (mashallah) isn’t there someone working at the mosque/school during the day to let people who may not be familiar with the actual prayer times (such as travelers) use the mosque? If so please let us know how to reach them for the benefit of others if you truly mean your mosque is open 24/7 or correct your timings on google. Jazakallah

    Came for a quick shopping trip across the border and need some where to pray Juma. Was impressed with all the services available here and the look. Doesn't look like your traditional Mosque
