Islamic Society of Chester CountyVerified

The Islamic Society of Chester County was found in 1978, to provide facilities and an environment where Muslims of Chester County and surrounding areas, could perform congregational prayers. These services were initially performed at individuals’ homes, followed by rental venues. In 1985, we purchased a church in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, and leveraged the facility as an Islamic Center. By the Grace of Allah (SWT) with a total membership of 25 families, we purchased a small home and converted it into our place of worship in 1994. In 1996, we purchased an additional house behind our masjid to start Sunday School Program. The Muslim population has been growing steadily in Chester County. Alhamdulillah, we are no longer a small community of 25 families. We have grown to a diverse Islamic Community, consisting of over 100 families, in which we provide the various services.
