    It is one of the best Masjids I have been to in my 30 years. The Imam is incredibly knowledgeable and the believers are warm and friendly.

    A coworker/work friend found and visited this center last Friday at lunchtime and told some of us…read moreabout it in case we were interested too since its only a mile from work. Friday is a special and important/holy day for Muslims, like Sunday is for Christians. I was able to go today too, luckily no meetings at that time, so we took our lunch hour late from 115-215pm and were able to catch an Uber and catch most of the khutbah (like a sermon) that is before the prayers, although it was all in Arabic this time (last week he said there was an English translator). And I'd read about the earphones available for translation in these reviews but we got there too late and didnt want to be walking around being disruptive looking for them. It didn't matter though because it was really the experience/community/prayers we were there for. He went in the front door with the males and I followed a lady with a hijab that I saw walking through the parking lot to a rear door. She was nice enough to wave me over, too, and there were clear signs outside as well. I was nervous because I was new, a little late, and this was my first time going to a group prayer tbh. I've visited mosques before in Turkey but not during actual prayer times. I put my scarf on in the parking lot to cover my hair and then took my shoes off and left them at the bottom of the steps with everyone else's, leaving my socks on. The floor was wet, probably from people doing wudu, lol. I went up the stairs and women were sitting facing a gold curtain in the front and also along the walls so I went to the back wall and sat between two women. Nobody stared or made me feel weird just general quick glances like I was new or something, but overall no problem and it seemed like a nice cozy group. Maybe 30 or 35 women and maybe 6 or so little well-behaved girls. The carpet was clean and I think red and green. I didn't need to bring my prayer rug after all, nobody else did. I was self conscious and nervous about when we would get to the prayers part, which lasted about 10 minutes after the khutbah, because I didn't know how it worked and I really don't know mine by heart or without using the salat learning app, but it was fine after all because i saw how everyone does it together in silence except for the man/imam speaking that we can't see in the womens area anyway since we're in a separate room from the men upstairs and behind a curtain/divider. (Sorry for the major run on sentences, I'm typing like I talk rn lol). After the khutbah, everyone got up and squished together in horizontal rows toward the front so i just followed and copied whatever they did. I didn't know why they were shoulder to shoulder tbh but later my coworker explained that was to keep shaytan (satan) out and an act of unity/togetherness. I'd left like a foot of space between me and the young girl next to me but next time I'll know not to do that. Then everyone does the motions together as they're announced and it's a really humbling, peaceful and spiritual feeling, so although we had to rush bc we only had an hour, and I can't speak toward anything else the center offers since our time was limited, I enjoyed the experience overall and will be back. My coworker did mention there are shops that sell halal food etc next to the mosque that he picked up lunch at last time, so that's convenient. The end..

    Alhamduallah I was born and raised Muslim. Once I walked inside this misjad everything is different…read morepeople are very rude they keep staring at new people entered the misjad. I did not like they way how they approach me while I'm praying they were supposed to wait for me until I finish. Even if you own the masjid this is the house of Allah not yours. Overall, I would rather to pray in my car but in this misjad

    So this is my first time going to the Islamic Center of Alameda but I have to say it was great…read more Awesome, warm community and a great little masjid to boot! The men and women have separate prayer areas and bathrooms connected by a door- just in case a small child or wife or husband need to get in contact with each other- while in the masjid. The women's area is clean with a TV with working sound that shows the men's prayer area and the minbar - so you can actually see the khutbah without being in the men's area. Sound is loud and clear - alhumdualillah. There is also a water cooler and a small bathroom/wudu station attached. Outside there is some parking in front of the masjid and a basketball hoop with thats fenced in where the children can play. Great masjid - inshaAllah one of these days I will attend for an actually Jummah!

    I agree with sister Aisha. Great place. When I go shopping for masjids I stay away from cultural…read moreplaces. I want a welcoming group with a lot of diversity. This masjid has a lot of loving african american women. This time I was surprised they had free food. Many community members sponsor Jummah meals. It was yummy. I made sure I did sadaqah to support future meals. When you add food to a halaqa - it becomes AWESOME. The men pray in the building to the left of the street, and women have a spacious place on the right in the islamic community center. The Khutba is telecasted live for the women. Make sure you enter from the side door to the islamic center otherwise you have to hunt for the shoe rack. Tip : Do bring change when u go for prayers on Friday, great way to earn Hasana by saadaqa. And grab some eatables like a cake when you go to halaqas. The duas that u get from giving an unexpected treat is awesome.

    I first attended Arabic school at this masjid at it's old location when I was just 8 years old and…read moreI haven't been able to leave this community 18 years later. I absolutely adore this new location. The space is fantastic and is wisely used creating a youth center, a library, a full kitchen, a large patio area with picnic tables and tents, many classrooms and much more. It's consistently clean, provides ample parking, and is in a safe residential community in Walnut Creek. The knowledge and expertise is on another level. These board members are knowledgable about the Islam religion as whole and listen and understand some of the daily struggles that we all face (including conflicts between real world and religion). They hold regular open educational sessions, offer tutoring services, and provide their personal time which they could be doing other stuff to do outreach (like feeding the needy, cleaning up our community streets, and fundraising for several different charities all over the world). I have had opposing points of view on a few occasions (previously being one of the younger members and not as religious as many of the members) and have grown into a role there that cannot be fulfilled by my career or other communities I belong to yet throughout the times I've held opposing points of view, I have still felt like I was still completely heard in the situations by multiple people, that my needs were addressed, and that compromises were made. My favorite part? The community feeling I get attending a place like this. There are several people and they welcome anyone, (Muslim or not!) with open hands, hearts, and an easy ear that genuinely cares for it's members. If you're a new face, someone (usually a friendly board member) will greet you and assist in your needs whether one is just interested in observing, someone wanting to become a member, fulfilling community service hours, converting to Islam, or just simply doing a school project of some sort. The weekly gatherings in which food is served also don't hurt! Overall, I think this place is a secret, sacred, jewel that allows for a safe, secure, welcoming, relaxing, engaging, and open environment where I enjoy spending my time at!

    I do not recommend going on Thursdays for the food donations. The food they pick up THEY take by…read morethe box full. After standing in line for sometimes over an hour and watching what was donated go right into their cars you are told you can only pick 1 thing from each table from what is left after the "volunteers " take their boxfuls. I hope someone looks into this non Christian way of helping people in need
