Minnesota Dawah Institute

About
Masjid Dawah

A home for worship, Islamic education, Dawah, youth development,
and a growing Muslim community in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Who We Are

Faith.
Knowledge.
Community.

Masjid Dawah is more than a place of prayer. We are building an
Islamic institution dedicated to worship, education, development,
Dawah, and service to the Muslim community.

Through Minnesota Dawah Institute, our goal is to create an
environment where Muslims can strengthen their relationship with
Allah, seek beneficial knowledge, develop strong Islamic character,
build meaningful relationships, and contribute positively to their
families and communities.

From our full-time Islamic school and Qur’an programs to youth
development, community programming, Dawah, and family services,
we are working toward an institution capable of serving Muslims
throughout every stage of life.

Our goal is not simply to operate a masjid. Our goal is to build
an institution that strengthens Muslims for generations.

Our Commitment

Serving With Purpose

Serving With Amanah

Everything entrusted to Masjid Dawah—from our students and

spiritual, educational, social, and developmental needs of Muslims.

Our Purpose

Building Muslims.
Building Community.

The strength of a Muslim community is not measured only by its
buildings. It is measured by the people those institutions develop.

Masjid Dawah seeks to cultivate Muslims grounded in Qur’an,
knowledge, worship, character, responsibility, and service.

strengthened through this institution represents an opportunity
for lasting impact.
