Prayer And Worship
Daily prayer, Friday khutbah, Ramadan, Eid, and regular spiritual reminders.
Our mission is to serve East York Muslims with dependable prayer, faithful learning, and caring community support — while keeping the warm, neighbourhood masjid character that makes people feel at home.
إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ
“The mosques of Allah are only maintained by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day.”Qur'an 9:18About the centre
A proper local Islamic centre with shared roots and a clear mission
Since 2005, Danforth Islamic Centre has been a welcoming home for prayer, learning, and community. Abdullah Ibn Abbas Islamic Centre is a distinct centre guided by the same values: seriousness in worship, consistency in service, and responsibility to the local Muslim community.
- Daily salah, Jumu'ah, Ramadan, and Eid worship
- Qur'an, Islamic studies, and learning for all ages
- Family support, counseling, and community connection
- Outreach, settlement help, food support, and referrals
DIC Management provides the broader direction, while Abdullah Ibn Abbas Islamic Centre applies that experience as a distinct East York home for worship, learning, and support.
