Masjid Muhammad

Masjid Muhammad is an historically African-American mosque in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1960 as Nation of Islam Temple 4, the mosque is now affiliated with Sunni Islam. It is the second oldest mosque in Washington, D.C. and the city’s oldest mosque founded by African-American descendants of enslaved people. Masjid Muhammad is commonly referred to as “The Nation’s Mosque”.

Masjid Muhammad or Washington Masjid, also called, “The Nation’s Masjid (Mosque)” is the place of worship for several thousand Muslims in the Washington, D.C. area. Every Friday, near midday when the traditional “Adhan” (call to prayer) is heard there, hundreds gather to offer praise and thanks to Allah (G-d) and listen to the Imam deliver a meaningful, inspiring khutbah (sermon). This is the Juma’h service, the Muslim’s congregational worship, as commanded by Allah in the Holy Quran and as has been practiced in the world for more than 1400 years.
