>The Fazl Mosque in Washington, D.C. was established by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in 1950 and is the first mosque in the U.S. capital of Washington, D.C. It’s full title is the American Fazl Mosque, which helps to distinguish it from its sister mosque, the Fazl Mosque, London, both of which were the first mosques in the capitals of the U.S. and the U.K., respectively. Located a few minutes from the White House, and neighboring several embassies, Fazl Mosque opened seven years prior to the Islamic Center of Washington and is the longest serving mosque in the nation’s capital.

7 months agoVisiting the American Fazal Mosque in Washington DC was an incredibly enlightening and enriching experience. The mosque's serene atmosphere create a sense of peace and tranquility. The Imam and people were welcoming, friendly, and eager to share their knowledge about Islam and the mosque's history. The prayer hall is beautifully adorned. The mosque also offers various educational programs and events that promote interfaith dialogue and understanding, making it a valuable resource for the community. What impressed me the most was the mosque's commitment to inclusivity and diversity. They actively engage with people from all walks of life, fostering a sense of unity and acceptance. It's truly a place where people can come together, learn, and grow. I highly recommend visiting the American Fazal Mosque to anyone interested in learning more about Islam or simply seeking a peaceful and welcoming environment. It's a hidden gem in Washington DC that deserves recognition for its contributions to promoting harmony and understanding among different cultures and religions.

3 months agoI went there to offer Megreb prayer with a friend. Atmosphere at the mosque was very friendly and spiritual. The Imam who lead the prayer was a very nice, knowledgeable, humble and sweet young man. The mosque has a separate place for females to offer prayers as well. I was very glad to see a mosque in the heart of the DC. It’s almost 100 years old historical mosque. May God bless, amen.

5 months agoA historic and beautiful Mosque in the heart of Washington DC. I was working in the city all week and due to the location of the Mosque I was able to walk to the Mosque and offer my prayers. The missionary in charge is also super friendly and the hospitality is great. What a blessing experience.
