★★★★☆ I found that Imam Bahraini's English is improving. I look foreward to the next friday sermon! I have also found he has great social skills. Very good Aklaq Mashallah.. Posted on March 8, 2015

★★★★★ Amazing!!!!!! Just what the five star guy said Posted on July 28, 2012

★★★★★ IEC, located in Rockville/Potomac is an excellent Islamic center. A great place that has all types of services, including prayers, quranic and arabic lessons as well as a school. Attended Thursday night Dua Kumail and Jumuah prayers. They usually have a decent program on Friday evenings. Everyone I came into contact with here seemed pious, genuine and hospitable, just like every masjid should be. I usually go here on Fridays when I'm close to the Rockville area.

★★★☆☆ This large education center is also a full school and should be added to the school listing. It offers services for all muslims such as Quran and Arabic classes, and I know of muslims who identify themselves as Sunni who send their kids here as well. It offers a free medical clinic for everyone. Many doctors in the community. Although most of the programs and evenings are around Shia holidays, Ramadan and Jumah is open to all and there is no problem praying as you like. The community is mostly Iranian and I have not seen enough ambassadorship to people from other cultures, but I do see all muslims come in to pray there freely. The large community center has hosted meetings of the Coordinating Council of Muslim Organizations (the group of DC area masjids) and seems to be opening up more, but still more can be done and I look forward to more outreach from this masjid in the future. The Jumah khutbas are in a really bad english by Imam Bahraini, I don't know why he insists on doing them but nonetheless it's a nice peaceful Jumah prayer and I do see brothers who consider themselves Sunni pray there and leave after the noon prayer. According to the community new Imam Bahraini has done a lot for the Masjid and seems like a well intending brother, but his social skills are lacking. Bathrooms are not very clean unfortunately. All brothers and sisters should feel free to come visit the mosque, stop by and perform prayers and use the services and classes available. Based on my experience you will have an decent, if not fantastic experience. I gave it an 'average' rating because I expect more from a masjid of this size and hope to see more soon insha Allah.
