New Building

A new exciting project is underway to rejuvenate the presence of Islam in the downtown core. The Ottawa community has out grown the modest building at 312 Lisgar. By the grace of Allah the current building will be demolished for a new structure to better serve the Ottawa Community. Architectural design has been completed with the new four level structure. Collectively this will adequately provide prayer space to meet our needs in Downtown Ottawa. In addition to separate prayer facilities for men and women, the plan provides for offices to accommodate Muslim Family Services and Islamic Information Centre."

Often we tend to abandon our beloved youth in times which they are most in need with the notion that they must learn to be independent. We want them to be self reliant and be able to manage their difficulties all on their own. This often causes youth to tread a path that is disconnected with the public and binds them into a culture of “every man for himself”.
