| Muhammad Islamic Center : ★★★★★ I really enjoy coming to this masjid for the Friday Jummah prayers. Being an English speaking, America-born person of Pakistani decent, I often don't understand the purely Arabic or Urdu khutbahs. I get nothing out of them except the sense that I fulfilled my duty to offer Jummah at the masjid. At this masjid, it is always a wonderful learning and spiritual experience. The khutbahs tend to be intelligent, relevant and inspiring. Even when there is a guest khateeb, it's usually a very interesting talk. This is the kind of masjid that I feel other masjids need to follow in order to keep the English speaking community interested and inspired. Too many masjids follow cultural Islam traditions that cater to a certain immigrant group. Not here, which is why I identify with the message and spirit of this masjid. May Allah continue to elevate and bless this house of His. Ameen! (Submitted on December 13, 2011) |
| The Islamic Center of New Mexico: ★★★★ Bismillah - This masjid has undergone a major renovation since the last review. The entire building was demolished and completely reconstructed from the foundation up. It now has a very beautiful traditional Islamic design combined with traditional New Mexican adobe look. I love the beautiful green dome and adobe minaret. It is very eye catching and a true star for the state of New Mexico and city of Albuquerque as well as a credit to the Muslim community in that city. When I first moved to Albuquerque, the masjid was already demolished and we were praying in a small building on the masjid property which used to be a restaurant. A temporary tent was also put up for the 5 daily salat and Jummah. I am always impressed with the number of people who attend the daily salat. I often find people at the masjid for each salat, including Fajr and especially Isha. The masjid also has several areas inside that function well including a huge area for the sisters, two large lobby areas (one on the men’s side, one on the women’s). They’ve also gone high-tech with a state of the art audio/visual system on both the sides. Large, attractive yet functional wudu areas serve well. One room has been dedicated for a library and hiw’ar area. The masjid also has ample parking on both sides of the building. Finally, they’ve built in facilities for funeral services. The brother who is currently in the role of imam does a fine job leading and giving lectures, however he does not speak English so knowledgeable people from the community lead Jummah and transfer is daily talks. I pray that Allah (SWT) sends an appropriate imam to this community who knows the Deen well, understands the cultural diversity, speaks English as well as Arabic and possibly Urdu and Spanish. The masjid opened during the last week of two Ramadans ago. Congratulations to ICNM for doing a beautiful job with the new masjid. (Submitted on April 17, 2008) |
