Islamic Center of Wheaton (ICW Mosque)

Once it was a church, now it is a grand and very peaceful masjid with lots of car parkings, very neatly maintained.

No proper gender segregation. Way too much free mixing.

Today's Eid prayer was held outside which was a terrible decision. First of all there is all the smoke outside which is not good for people. Second, they didn't make any arrangements for praying outside like laying out mats so we had to pray in the grass which had both bees and also the water pipe running through it. It would have been better to hold it in the parking lot or inside would be best.

Excellent Masjid peaceful and quite, Alhumdullilah

I am leaving a 5 star, because this is the house of ALLAH. It desevers the highest place in this world. However, my experience in the masjid is quite different. I was travelling in mid January of 2023 and it was afternoon, chasing my Zuhur prayer. The masjid was closed and I rang the bell. A lady answred the door and told me that the Masjid is close and I told her, that the Zuhur is almost passing me, so please allow me to enter the masjid to perform my prayer. She insisted that the masjid is close and she cannot let me in. I asked this is the house of ALLAH, and you cannot deny me enter his house. she called a man who claimed to be Imam and he did the same thing. He clearly told me that its not a prayer time, and you cannot enter the masjid. I am 53 years old born and raised in a muslim environment and it was the first time that I was denied to enter the house of my cretor and creator of ALL. A halal store cross the street offered me a prayer mat, MAY ALLAH reward them the highest place in JANNAH. So here is my message to those who denied my prayer to ALLAH, as we are in the month of Shab'an which is the month repentance, showing gratitude, and seeking rewards from Allah, I forgive you with ALL my heart, but you need to seek ALLAH's forgiveness. May ALLAH guide you to the right path. Amin.
