About Us

The New Brunswick Islamic Center has been serving the spiritual and social needs of the central New Jersey Muslim community for nearly 25 years. We also have a long history of service and outreach to the community-at-large.

Services provided include:

* Prayer services (five daily, Friday, Tarawih, Eid)
* Educational & community service programs
* Zakat collection and distribution
* Social gatherings

Malcolm Forbes defined diversity as “the art of thinking independently together.”  The American Muslim population is among the most diverse in the world, and at NBIC we have always valued the unique perspectives and experiences that each believer brings to our congregation. The community served by NBIC is very diverse, and our organization places a priority on maintaining an environment that is welcoming and inclusive to all Muslims. Those who attend our center come from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds, including African American, Latino, South Asian, Arab, African, and others.  We welcome participation in our activities from the entire community, regardless of gender, ethnic background, or age.

In accordance with the numerous teachings of Islam to honor the neighbors, NBIC also places a high priority on outreach and service to the community in which our center is housed.  We offer numerous outreach activities to our neighbors and local community institutions, including universities, schools, and churches.
