Masjid El-Ber

I grew up in the neighborhood where this Masjid is located so I have a special connection to it. Went there the other day because we were passing by and it was Zuhar time. Very nice Masjid in a busy area with a nice atmosphere. I do wonder how they did with the Jummah crowd since the space seems limited. Not sure if they acquired additional space on the top floors. Noticed they also have a community fridge for food for those in need outside the building, that's a nice touch!

Ma Shaa Allah a nice mosque serving it's purpose. May Allah bless those who are taking care of it.

mosque is NOT open 24h. Came to pray around midnight and the brother told me it closed after Isha.

Conveniently located near train station. Has a separate entrance labeled FOR SISTERS but it’s locked. After knocking multiple times, standing near the door for a good five minutes and trying to get someone to open it- a brother finally emerged from inside. The space was being used as his office/ living quarter. After being led through this area- I was told the actually prayer space is downstairs (of course). Completely detached; no speakers to hear imam. There was a strong smell of mold. Did not stay long.

The mosque was established in 1980. It is located in a very convenient place in Astoria near 36th Ave subway (N & W train) station. It is the closest mosque for Long Island City neighborhood as well. Mosque is always a place of peace and blessing for the people who believe in God.
