| Madina Masjid |  Alhamdulilah, this is a pleasant masjid. You can find a number of people inside at any given time, and there's Qur'ans and plenty of books in Bangla. This masjid has a large but not exclusive Bangladeshi community. (Submitted on 2005-10-23)
| | Stony Brook University MSA |  I found the Stony Brook MSA to be a great asset to the college. If you're traveling, you can stop in. They also have real wudu stations, saving people the embarrassment of using a regular sink in the bathroom. (Submitted on 2005-10-04)
| | Afghan Islamic Center | This masjid is rather small, but very friendly and has a really good community of families and individuals who help one another. The building is showing its age; it gets quite cold in the winter, somuch so that you need a jacket during the tarawih. However, it has a large crowd for Jummah (khutbas in Pashtu and English), iftars every night in Ramadan, and a hafiz annually for the tarawih prayers. Stop by sometime after maghrib or Isha and the men will offer you tea. The downside is that the women's area is fairly small, and I've been told offers poor sound and heating.

| | Islamic Center of the Capital District | ICCD is perhaps the main masjid for Albany, though it holds fewer people than the others. It has a full-time Imam who offers weekend lectures and appears sometimes in the local newspaper when asked about issues concerning Muslims. It's across the street from an Islamic elementary school, and a halal grocer. The community is friendly and diverse, and the masjid feels overall welcoming. (Submitted on 2005-08-16)
| | Masjid as-Salaam |  Masjid As-Salaam is a simple storefront mosque, with a relatively large musallah that holds large amounts of people for Jummah. It's clean and holds a large collection of Islamic books. Also, it's adjacent and across from 2 Halal food stores. The community is friendly, and while it's multicultural, I think it has a higher African-American population. (Submitted on 2005-08-16)
| | Islamic Center at NYU | ICNYU is a well-organized MSA, one that is more active than average I'd say. It's open to the public, so Muslims in the area occasionally drop by for the prayers. It's a fairly large MSA, there is a large hall used for Jummah and iftars, which draw well over 100 people. On regular days, you will find about a dozen Muslims more or less for the evening prayers, alhamdulilah. The MSA is active, and holds events and connects with the other MSAs in the city.

| | Islamic Center of Long Island | The ICLI is a beautiful masjid, has a nice dome and offers interesting speakers on occasion. (Submitted on 2005-08-12)
| | Masjid Darul Quran | I find the masjid to be a very nice and clean house of worship, with a number of dedicated families who make it a welcoming place. It's growing, so much so that it's now moved next door to an even larger building, and now is planning on opening an Islamic elementary school. (Submitted on 2005-08-12)
