Midtown Manhattan is the heart of the city of New York. There is a large community of Muslims working in the surrounding area. In the year of 1990, some of the community members realized that we needed a place to perform Salatul-Jummah.

For this purpose, they arranged a small place at 80th Madison Ave and prayed in that area. After a couple of years the place was evacuated by the landlord, so they arranged a new place in a hotel. They rented a floor and began to perform their salat at the new location.

After two years this place was also evacuated by the hotel management. They then arranged a new place for Friday prayers in St. Baptist church at 30thst b/w 7th and 8thave.

ARABIC CLASSES

The Masjid also offers time to time Arabic classes for those who want to learn the language.
