The Greater Toronto Area is home to many Muslim communities that need a community centre for religious, social, cultural and positive moral guidance. The Istiqlal Islamic Centre of Toronto (IICT) was incorporated on March 1st, 2021, as a not-for-profit organization in Canada.

Istiqlal is an Arabic word for 'independence.' Inspired by the Istiqlal Mosque, the largest mosque in Southeast Asia and located in Indonesia, IICT promotes the peace and harmony of Islam in a multicultural society. Our Muslim community in the GTA has built a positive relationship with Canadian communities and will continue to be an exemplary Muslim community.

IICT programs will include five daily prayers, a Friday sermon, and Islamic major calendar events, Insha Allah.
