About Hamza Masjid
A sacred home for Toronto's Muslim community — rooted in faith, built on brotherhood, and growing for the future.
Serving Toronto's Muslims Since 1999
In 1999, a dedicated group of Muslims from Toronto's Parkdale neighborhood came together with a shared vision: to establish a true Islamic center in the heart of their community.
What began as a modest gathering has grown into Hamza Masjid — the Parkdale Islamic Education Centre (PIEC) — a vibrant institution serving approximately 1,000 Muslim families in downtown Toronto. Every week, our prayer hall fills to capacity for Friday Jumu'ah, a testament to the deep roots our community has planted here.
Hamza Masjid has been established as a nonprofit charitable organization, debt-free and fully community-supported. We are proud to have earned the trust of our community through over 25 years of consistent, transparent service to Allah and His creation.
A Complete Center for Muslim Life
The Parkdale Islamic Education Centre has become a focal point for the Muslims of Toronto. It is centrally located in the heart of a Muslim community and serves the religious, social, and educational needs of this community.
Worship
Five daily prayers held in congregation, three Friday Jumu'ah congregations, and Tarawih prayers throughout Ramadan — keeping our community connected to Allah.
Education
Islamic studies for children on Sundays, weekly study circles for adults, Quran classes with Tajweed, and educational programs conducted by Imam Ayoub.
Community
A welcoming home for 1,000+ Muslim families — celebrating Eid, supporting one another through life's milestones, and building lasting bonds of brotherhood.
The Masjid Expansion Project
Alhamdulillah, through the generous support of our community, we have raised $1,100,000 toward our $1.8 million expansion goal.
We are planning to purchase the adjacent storefront so we can expand Hamza Masjid and have an extended prayer hall, a dedicated ladies' section, and a full madrasa facility, Insha'Allah.
Insha'Allah, future plans also include facilities for funeral services and a full-time school for Muslim children, which will incorporate the Ontario Ministry of Education curriculum along with Islamic studies.
