★★☆☆☆ I was so excited to pray there when I went to New York, it was my main goal. When I got there, they told me I needed an appointment to pray in the main prayer hall, and they begrudgingly let me pray in the basement! Posted on December 1, 2012

★★☆☆☆ not sure about this masjid. Sure it has a nice Islamic dome at the top, but inside its another store No wudhu area, simply a regular basin where you attempt to make wudhu- arms could barely fit, let alone fee and water spilling all over. brother at front desk looked surprised when we asked if we could pay Asr there, then prompted to search my bag and have me leave it at the entrance. Mosque prayer area consists of a large room with wooden floors and musallah's placed in 2 or 3 rows. Another brother took offence to me reading in the back row. Apparently that area is reserved for sisters. Put up a sign!! Posted on November 24, 2012

★★★★★ Stopped by yesterday for Asr Salah and the masjid was closed. Still a beautiful place to see. I went down a few blocks to masjid Al-Aqsa and prayed there. Posted on May 31, 2011

★★★★☆ THIS MASJID IS NOT NATION OF ISLAM. Malcolm El Hajj Shabazz when he returned from Hajj changed this masjid to traditional sunni muslim in the 60's. Nation of Islam Mosques are numbered, not named. I go to Jummah regularily & this is a predominately African American masjid with also many Senegalese from the local community, some Arab & some Pakistani. Very welcoming & open masjid. Although I have respect for all Imams, I've heard better Khutbahs at other masjids. Overall I feel it's a great Masjid for Jummah & I plan to attend their Eid ul-Fitr prayer & festivities.

★★★☆☆ I was there for Maghrib yesterday but the door was locked. No way to get into the building. Posted on June 16, 2010

NR I have not been to this mosque, but I don't understand why BrianMuhammad refers to Elijah Muhammad as "The Hon. Elijah Muhammad"? What is honorable about a known con man? I don't know what the current status of this mosque is, maybe it truly is "traditional Sunni" as stated by Salatomatic. But according to BrianMuhammad it was founded by "Minister" Louis Farrakhan, who of course is not a Muslim. The "Nation of Islam" is not Islam, and there is nothing "honorable" about them.

★★★★☆ The historic Mosque was the historic Mosque #7 where Malcolm X taught. After his untimely assassination in 1965, the building was fire bombed burned down. The Hon. Elijah Muhammad purchased the propoerty and built the structure in the picture and assigned Min. Louis Farrakhan as spiritual head of the Mosque. He lead it from 1965-1975. The building was reopenned after its construction in 1968. During the mid 70's-80', the Masjid was lead by Imam Ali Rashid until his death, replaced by the current leader, Imam Izak el Mu'heed Pasha.

★★★★★ I've been there for several Jummah services. The masjid has a mostly african american muslim crowd, some arab and S. Asians. Very very friendly. The brothers are helpful and will guide you to the women's area, which is clean. Clear view of the imam during Kutba but you can also stay in a back room if you'd like and often children stay there with mothers. Posted on August 30, 2005
