As-salaam alaikum /Peace Unto you and welcome to Masjid Al-Shareef web page. A community that initially were all descendants of African Slaves born here in the United States of America. This community is an outgrowth of the Nation of Islam and part of one of the largest reversions of African American Citizens in 1975 under the Leadership of Imam Warithdeen Muhammad son of the founder of the Nation of Islam “The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Early on the community in Long Beach under the leadership of Imam Haroon Abdullah began to attract Muslims from every nationality, race, and creed to form one of the most diverse Muslim Communities in the United States. Under the leadership of Imam Haroon Abdullah and Imam Ameen Umar the community expanded its outreach and became involved in interfaith partnerships with Catholic, Protestant, Buddhist, Latter Day Saints and other faith groups and this work continues today.

7 years agoVery convenient location, only 10 min from my work. Today I went there for the first time. I found a parking in the parking lot, I thought I got lucky. Thank God. When getting out, I realized I was trapped by 3 cars in front of me. Of which the first driver with green colorfull dress keep shaking hands meeting people on the street, came to the car to pick up something then went back to the Masjid again. Made me wait more than 10 min. I plan to pray for jumma here every Friday, but if this is the case, and I cannot do quick in and out. I might have to just skip the prayer. Cause we have professional work to do maintaining strict schedule. I have meeting going on at 2. If I can't be there on time I miss valuable information. I am really disappointed to see that Masjid don't do any announcements after prayer for the people to move their car especially when they are blocking other people. I do not feel causing inconvenience for other people is true Muslim like. We should all be considerate of others.

8 years agoParking can be a pain. Especially on Juma. They have like 5 car spaces total in the back and rest is street parking, if you can find it. Other then that its a place to pray and make dua. We should appreciate every masjid/mosque no matter its condition.
