WHO WE ARE
Al-Mansoor Cultural Center began in 2016, in an effort to create an Islamic space for the Muslim community of South Jamaica, Queens, New York. It is located on 107-57 154 th St, just a few minutes from the Sutphin Boulevard Station.
Alhamdulillah, currently, AMCC is operating a full-fledged Masjid that provides many different programs and services. Among these are daily prayers, weekly Jumuah and Taraweeh prayers in the month of Ramadhan. It also has weekly Tafsir programs. For Islamic education, there is a Maktab and Madrasa where students of all ages are learning their Arabic letters, perfecting their Tajweed in reciting the beautiful ayahs of the Holy Book, and also a Hifz program where our students memorize the Qur’an by heart. Alhamdulillah we have qualified male and female teachers on our staff so as to provide a good Islamic environment for both male and female students. As a cultural center, it functions as a place for the community to gather for functions such as Eid and Aqiqah, and Marriage. AMCC strives to bring the Muslims in South Jamaica together as a community.
OUR GOAL
Our future goal is to have a community center to fulfill the needs of the Muslim families, a recreational and fitness center for our youth, and for the elderly, a place where they can interact and spend time. Among our goals in education, we plan to have a complete Alim course. Our plan is to provide equal facilities and opportunities for males and female students in all educational departments.
VISION
Al-Mansoor Cultural Center endeavors to be a stable source of authentic Islamic knowledge along with providing all the needs of a broader Muslim community. We would like to be a bridge that links the Muslim community with the people of all faiths. We have highly qualified Islamic scholars within our program, and are also connected to a huge network of Islamic scholars globally.
OUR STAFF
We will need additional staff and teachers to facilitate the proposed additional programs and services.
