Al Salaam Islamic Centre – Rising Stronger in the Heart of Kitchener
Al Salaam Islamic Centre was established in August 2023, in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. With the help of Allah, it quickly became a place of hope and service, offering prayer, education, youth programming, and community support for the growing Muslim population in Kitchener.
In July 2025, a fire destroyed the Centre, leaving our community devastated and without a spiritual home.
Alhamdulillah, from this loss came renewed resolve. Al Salaam Islamic Centre has now secured a conditional agreement for a three-story building in downtown Kitchener to serve as a masjid. Located in the city’s Heritage District, this Centre comes at a critical time as the Region of Waterloo moves toward a population of one million residents. The need for a permanent Islamic Centre in the heart of the city has never been greater.
This Centre will be a place of worship, learning, and belonging, serving generations to come, Insha Allah. To make this vision a reality, we are raising $3.5 million CAD for purchase and renovation. Al-Salaam Islamic Centre will provide official CRA-compliant tax receipts for all qualifying donations made to support the project charity number (743786014RR0001) .Every contribution brings us closer to rebuilding not just a masjid, but a lasting home for our community.
"Whoever builds a mosque in which the Name of Allah is mentioned, Allah will build a house for him in Paradise."
