North Vancouver is a beautiful city in British Columbia, Canada. This city, however, was missing a Sunni dedicated Masjid to serve the many Muslims living in the area. Rather, the faithful would gather in rented units, or journey across the Burrard Inlet to Vancouver for their religious duties.

Seeing this need, in 2012 the North Vancouver Islaamic Association was formed. It purchased a church on the corner of Phillip and W.15th Street and began the renovation and re-construction that transformed it into a Masjid. By the Grace of Allaah, the Masjid was completed in early 2013. Masjid Ar-Rahman was opened, and it is now a place of worship, relaxation and learning for the Muslims living in the North Shore area, and its surroundings. This project united all Muslims who follow the Qur’an and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم with the understanding of his noble companions (Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman & Ali) رضي الله عنهم أجمعين

The brothers and sisters of the community are very active and are involved in various programs at the Masjid. In order to continue to facilitate this spirit and to inspire further growth, the Masjid also has a dedicated section for the sisters. The “Light of the Believers” or “Noor Al-Mu’minaat” was established in the summer of 2013 and will enhance the Masjid community by better serving the sisters and their families Insha’Allah.

Masjid Ar-Rahman ( مسجد الرحمن )

Starting in the 1970s, Ismailis across Canada established religious, cultural and social centres, mainly in rented accommodation in major cities and towns. In many cases, school halls were used as places of worship in the evenings and at weekends. However, in order to meet the permanent needs of the community, more definitive accommodation was sought. The site in Burnaby was acquired in 1979, for it was here that the first Ismaili congregation was established in Canada.

A firm of architects, led by the well-known Vancouver architect Bruno Freschi, was commissioned to prepare the plans for the building. In addition to meeting the religious and social needs of the Ismaili community, the new Ismaili Centre would, at the same time, need to blend harmoniously with the environment.
In July 1982, the Foundation Ceremony was performed by the Lieutenant-Governor of British Columbia, the Honourable Henry Bell-Irving, in the presence of Mawlana Hazar Imam, Mayor Lewarne of Burnaby and other distinguished guests. Three years later, in August 1985, Hazar Imam returned to Canada for the Opening Ceremony of the new Ismaili Centre, Vancouver, which was performed by Prime Minister Brian Mulroney.

Since its opening, the Ismaili Centre, Vancouver has hosted a wide range of events, opening its doors to government officials, prominent academics, leaders of many communities, and the wider public. In March 1999, members of the judiciary gathered with the Ismaili Conciliation and Arbitration Board to better understand the role that the Board can play in dispute resolution. Chief Justice Brian Williams and Attorney General Ujjal Dosanjh attended as guests of honour.

The Centre has also provided a dignified space for the Greater Vancouver Regional District. Between September – December 2002, the mayors and staff of all municipalities in the Lower Mainland held a series of board meetings at the Centre.

On a number of occasions, the Ismaili Centre provided a distinguished venue for the presentation of the Duke of Edinburgh Awards, including the Gold level awards that were presented by His Royal Highness The Duke of York. The events presented award recipients and their families an opportunity to tour the Centre and dialogue with leaders of the Ismaili community.

Most recently, Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General of Canada, led some 200 British Columbian youth in a Truce Dialogue. The Dialogue was part of Canada's expression of the Olympic Truce in the run-up to the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The Ismaili Councils for Canada and British Columbia partnered with VANOC, the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, to host the Dialogue session, which took place in the social hall of the Ismaili Centre, before concluding in its courtyard.

The masjid is named after 'Omar ibn Al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) – one of the Righteous Companions of the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and the second Khalifah (Caliph) of Islam. 'Omar ibn Al-Khattāb was affectionately nicknamed "Al-Farooq," which refers to "one who has the ability to clearly distinguish between right and wrong" because of his strictness in enjoining good and forbidding evil.

Ismaili Jamatkhana - Burnaby Lake

Granville Musallah Masjid

Masjid-ul Haqq was purchased in 1998. In 1998, the branch acquired the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, a church located at 4162 Welwyn Street, half a block north of Kingsway between Victoria drive and Knight street. The property consisted of two buildings: the first contained a very spacious main prayer area. The basement consisted of two separate rooms along with an office, two bathrooms, an entry hall, a furnace room, an electrical room, and a storage area. The second building was a small, two-bedroom house in good condition. The structure was attractive because of its location(East Vancouver), its size (nearly 4000 square feet in the building, 1200 square feet in the residence), and its features (a prayer hall for women, a classroom, and a conference room). As a working church, the site also came with additional features such as an emergency lighting system, a public address system, burglar and fire alarms, two built-in vacuum cleaners, exit displays, and 80 chairs. This project was definitely a community effort, as the Vancouver branch team included 27 members. This Mosque came to be known as Masjid-ul-Haqq.

Praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds. To Him belong the endowments and proper commendations. May GOD raise the rank of our Prophet and protect his nation from what he fears for it.

We started this path relying on our values of moderation, openness, wisdom, and cooperation. Our goal is to teach, guide towards good and benefit our societies. Our motto is honesty in transmitting Islamic knowledge.

We started this path relying on our values of moderation, openness, wisdom and cooperation. Our goal is to teach, guide towards good and benefit our societies. Our motto is honesty in transmitting the Islamic knowledge.

All this made the Association of Islamic Charitable Projects rise to the level of worldwide associations and be known throughout the world, so much so that it is playing an important role in spreading values of justice and knowledge among the different fractions of societies.

Hence, the Islamic institutions throughout the world rapidly trusted the A.I.C.P and established connections with it, a thing that consolidated the ties that the associations had with thousands of people worldwide. In fact, the association signed an agreement of cooperation with al-Azhaar in Egypt in November 17th 1999.

The A.I.C.P has as guides the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet and the path of the Islamic scholars like Imam Ash-Shafi^iyy, Imam Malik, Imam Ahmad and Imam Abu-Hanifah. Unlike the followers of Sayyid Qutub who deviated from the right path by following an erroneous idea that sprung fifty years ago, and unlike the followers of Muhammad ibn ^adbil-Wahhab who deviated from the right path by following an erroneous idea that sprung two hundred years ago, unlike them we are following the right path of the prophet, his companions and their followers. We hold and defend the creed of millions of Muslims throughout the world. As for matters of creed, we are Ash^aris, that is we follow the school of imam Abu-Al-Hassan al-Ash^ariyy, who is a Sunni scholar, and who compiled the creed of the companions and followers. As for issues of purifications, prayers, fasting and the like, we are Shafi^iyy, while knowing that all Sunni schools of jurisdiction are on the right path and that the minor differences among them concerning some details is mercy for the nation.

The A.I.C.P goes counter any form of extremism that allows the killing of innocents, and it is clear of any connections to any form of deviations or extremism that considers the mere fact of visiting the tomb of Prophet Muhammad or celebrating his birth as a type of heresy. Rather, the association warns against extremism and labors to prevent its spreading. The association considers the deviated and extremist practices of certain groups in the name of religion as a form of treason to the people and a cause for fracture among the unity of the nation.

As for teaching that whoever insults God or the Prophet is a blasphemer, or warning against any other type of blasphemy that makes the person who utters it go out of Islam, this is known among Muslims worldwide, and has been stated by scholars like Al-Qaddy ^iyad, who is Malikiyy, An-Nawawiyy who is Shafi^iyy and by numerous others. And we are following them proudly and openly.
