The Islamic Center of Raleigh

We are located at 808 Atwater Street, Raleigh NC 27607.
You can reach us by phone at 919 834-9572 or by email at iar1@bellsouth.net

We are nestled between NC State University campus and I-440. Parking during Friday prayers is very limited. To alleviate the parking problem we offer three shifts of Friday prayers. It is highly recommended to car pool during Friday prayers. NC State bus shuttle stops right at our door.

The Islamic Center of Raleigh has two buildings. One building serves as full-time school, "Al Iman School". Al Iman School is a red brick building facing Ligon Street. The masjid is the new white building and you can enter it from either Ligon Street or Atwater Street. The library and the office are located in the masjid. The doors for the masjid are open daily for the five prayers.
