The Islamic Center of Shenandoah Valley is the first Muslim place of worship in this part of Virginia. Hundreds of non-Muslims from our local community have visited the facility since the center was opened. We invite community members of all faiths to visit our facility. If you want to bring a group of students, please send e-mail to eaiasv@comcast.net to make arrangements for your visit. Many visitors come during the Friday prayers, which are held between 1:00-2:00 PM. We also participate in numerous interfaith activities organized by local churches and civic organizations. If you are interested in learning about Islam and Muslims, free literature is available in the center.
