Welcome to Assafa Islamic Center 

Assafa Islamic Center is a not-for-profit, religious and non-political organization. The local Muslim community established the center in 1996. Two years later they acquired a city lot at an auction. it was providing services of five-time prayers, weekend school, and Hifzul Qur’an, in a rented space at 172 Allen St only on a temporary basis. For Jumuah prayer we had to rent a separate space in Mariana Bracetti Community Center, located at 296 E 4th street (Between Ave B & C). So it is crucial to complete the new project to continue the services for the musallies. 
The new project is intended for da’wa and interfaith dialogue, expanded prayer space, a NYC Board of Education complaint full time Islamic school, all kinds of religious educational programs, and social services as needed by the community at large.
