Mission & History
The First Langley Masjid
To build the first Sunni Masjid in Langley, B.C. This Masjid will be a beacon of light for the ever growing muslim community in Langley.
We are in need of a Masjid that can accommodate 500 worshipers at any given time for prayer, with ample space to teach the Holy Quran to our kids and youth.
This waqf will ultimately benefit Muslims in Langley and the broader community as a whole.
It was narrated from Jabir bin 'Abdullah that: The Messenger of Allah said:
“Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, like a sparrow's nest for Allah or even smaller, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”
History of the Langley Masjid
- The Langley muslim community started with regular friday prayers in a farm owned by one of the brothers in 2007.
- As the community grew, we conducted Friday prayers at Timms Community Centre in Langley, renting it for two hours every Friday.
- One year later, a small location was leased across Costco. The community soon outgrew this as well.
- Subsequently, a site was leased on Industrial Avenue, but it soon became too small to accommodate the expanding community.
- We relocated once again to another site on the same street. This is our current location, which can house 150 people at any given time. This forces us to hold several friday prayers so that the entire muslim community can attend the Friday prayer.
- Today we hope to expand to the new location, that can house 550 worshippers at any given time.
