Very good masjid masha Allah. It has grown and still gradually heading towards becoming a very vibrant community. For those interested, the imam is a mufti and the head of the Rooyat e Hilal Committee of North America (RHCNA). They have a full time 'aalim program called the Al Noor Institute of Islamic Sciences in English headed by Maulana Faizan e Mustafa whose credentials are well known. The students I know personally and only have good things to say about them. They have an annual Al Noor magazine now as well. Plus they have Sunday school and also an "intro to Islam" lesson in English as well.
Great masjid. Huge . Clean. Architecture of this masjid deserves a great appreciation. Very well organized. Has a big parking lot. However, they should employee a very good imam with a beautiful Qiraat.
The masjid looks great from outside. I did not have the chance to get inside as I was with my wife to catch Asr prayer about an hour after the athan and unfortunately the ladies section was closed which forced us to pray somewhere else.
Best masjid ever
Went here for Jummah today. Very nice building that looks like a masjid from the outside. The interior of the masjid is very nice as well. The Talk before the Khutbah was in Urdu so did not get to benefit from it. I prefer the talks (not Khutbah) should be in English, so that everyone can benefit from the talk. Khutbah was done in Arabic, which is the traditional method. Another interesting thing I noticed was that some people were wearing topis that had the masjid name on it. Very good idea - especially to for marketing and support of the masjid!
Al Noor masjid is an oasis. For follower of the traditional Hanafi madhab, there is no better place. The khutbas are excellent and to the point, there is a Mufti (Allama Qamarul Hasan) who brings an ocean of knowledge and the listeners are always captivated. I have lived in numerous cities in this country and feel that this masjid/community is unique and blessed.
