The Islamic Center features separate prayer halls for men and women, a library, kitchen and a carpeted second floor facility, to be used for prayer and other community center activities when needed and also facilitates some recreational activities for children. The Islamic Center will be used for five daily prayer times, Friday prayer and other activities related to the Islamic teachings.
