 The building is very small. It's an old apartment with a basement, located on the corner. While the interior is plain or shabby, and the wudhu / bathroom facilities lacking, the heart of the community is strong. The women's area is small (it seems to have been a bedroom), and can get crowded when the university is in session. NBIC has been trying to raise funds for a new building for years. I recommend sisters make wudhu before coming to the masjid, if possible.
The heart of the community is strong. Women are involved here in every aspect: governance, and education, an aspect that NBIC is very strong on. The community is mixed: West Africans, Pakistanis and Indians, some Arabs, students, older males who work in the city, and a core community of young American families. Many classes in the traditional Islamic sciences, through their sister organization, the Gibraltar Educational Initiative.
