The Mosque was dedicated for religious services November of 2002 and is open daily for prayers and ceremonies. The Center provides services for Muslim and non-Muslim communities. Services provided include Ramadan Iftar (the breaking of the fast meal), tours of the Center, and introductory lectures about Islam for non-Muslims. The Center also offers a library with curbside pick up and drop off for patrons. The Center's Zakat program provides modest hardship assistance and grants-in-aid to indigent individuals to relieve Muslims in financial distress.

Beginning in 2014, the cultivation was expanded and grain was provided to thousands of poor and indigent people.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $21M to $22M (+4%).
Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
