What is a Mosque (Masjid)?
The Masjid is a central location for congregational prayer and community services. Our services include 5 daily prayers, full time private school and areas for social events/activities.

The Masjid is also a central hub for religious gatherings which include our Friday sermon (Jummu’ah) and marriage ceremonies. Many Masajid’s also provide counseling for both religious and non-religious affairs.

What to Wear?
Men and women should wear loose fitting clothing and cover their body except hands, face and feet.

Women are required to cover their hair with a scarf.

Structure of the Masjid
Upon entering the Masjid, you will be asked to remove your shoes, so we can maintain the cleanliness of our prayer space. Please feel free to carry/wear a clean pair of socks as several areas are constructed with tile floors.

We thank you for your interest in visiting Islamic Center of Greensboro. Please feel free to let us know if there is anything we can do to make your trip an enjoyable experience.
