Important: Sports activities are restricted before (10 mins), during & after (10 mins) prayers, halaqas and khatiras.

All of buildings and facilities were constructed for use of IALFM members and to meet the needs of our congregation by the grace of Allah SWT. Therefore, every facility is to be treated respectfully at all times. At no time are the buildings or facilities of IALFM to be used by persons or groups for any questionable activities. The MPH (Multi-Purpose Hall/Mens Prayer Hall), SPH (Sisters Prayer Hall) or Classrooms will not be available for use on Friday, Eid, or during Ramadan. When you see someone praying in the halls, please keep noise levels to a minimum so as not to distract them. Activities sponsored by IALFM will take precedence and priority. It is NOT allowed for an individual or a group to use the MPH (or any other room/space), unless permission has been obtained in advance from the IALFM Facility Committee.
