The Georgetown University Muslim Students Association is an organization that aims to serve and create a community for Muslim students at Georgetown. Stationed in the basement of Copley Hall, one of Georgetown's central buildings, the Georgetown musallah is essentially the mosque for those studying or living on campus. Unlike many other college prayer rooms, this isn't simply an unmodified room that has been assigned as a 'Muslim Prayer Room.' Rather, this is a masjid with its own mihrab, carpeting, color scheme, and Arabic calligraphy. Mohammed Zakariya, American calligrapher and designer of the Eid Stamp, designed the Georgetown musallah, which has come to be known as the 'Mosque of the Two Pillars' for the two ornamental pillars that grace the entrance. It is a valuable asset for campus Muslims who can go there to pray, read Qur'an, and relax at any time. Students in other colleges often have to go off campus for the same masjid feel.
