A Gift of the Quran The Islamic Center distribute free copies of the Quran to those who submit the Quran Request Form on our website and to our guests who tour the Islamic Center on daily basis

Friday Lunch Program The Islamic Center offers complimentary lunches to all who attend the Friday Juma prayer. This weekly gathering strengthens the bond among Muslim individuals and families. It has also attracted non-Muslim guests to join our community and helped new Muslims make new friends.

Emergency Assistance The Islamic Center assists local families at times of crisis. Among such areas include temporary financial assistance to cover housing rental fees, utility bills payments, physicians and prescription medications costs and grocery coupons.

Burial Services The Islamic Center provides burial services free of charge to our families at times of need. Our trained staff and volunteers perform all the duties of a funeral director, with prior consent and through direct consultation with the family of the deceased, perform the rights of the deceased by preparing the body of burial, conduct the funeral prayers at the Islamic Center and the cemetery. Also, we open the doors of the Islamic Center to be used for memorial services.

Food Distribution ICCF distributes halal meat and canned foods to needy Muslim families and organizes food drives to benefit local shelters and homeless advocacy groups. Our youths volunteer to serve meals to the needy in our community.

Cultural Diversity Training The Islamic Center conducts regular workshops to demystify Islam and increase community awareness. Such workshops include “Working with the Muslim Community” that is given on a weekly basis to the Fresno Police Department. Other law enforcement agencies that received this training include the FBI and the US Attorney’s offices in Fresno and Sacramento. A similar workshop titled “Taking Care of Muslim Patients” is currently being developed to train the Fresno/Clovis hospitals.

Ramadan Outreach The Islamic Center organizes Ramadan Iftar, break-the-fast dinner programs, which are heavily attended by local government representatives, faith leaders, educators and community organizations. Such gatherings strengthen our friendship and partnerships with our diverse community.
