Some youth activities include: participating in the Annual Bronx Borough President Iftar, social justice demonstrations, hosting blood drives, da’wah tables, the “Back to School Giveaway”, and many youth gatherings. Many services & programs offered to the community in English & Arabic language.
To move people to strive for Allah consciousness, liberty, and justice, and to convey Islam with utmost clarity.
We currently have a small overcrowded Mosque which has a capacity of less than 175 congregates.
