Guiding Light Islamic Center

A guiding light that restores purpose in life, for 15 years now.

Every Friday

This Friday

We have the largest Friday congregation in the city, so there are two khutbahs, given by a diverse list of khateebs.

1stkhutbah and iqamah
2ndkhutbah and iqamah

Help it run smoothly

  • Respect volunteers and parking lot rules.
  • Attend the 2nd khutbah if you can.
  • Buy a lunch box after salah. The money goes to the masjid.

Live from the masjid's own Mohid schedule. Tap Jumma/Other for both khutbah and iqamah times. Daily iqamah times are on the first tab and in the Athan+ app.

Charity never decreases your wealth

Most of the center's needs would be covered if those at Jumuah gave $7 a week or $30 a month.
