Our Sincere Condolences to the Deceased of Sri Lankan Terrorist Attacks on Easter Friday 2019

"In Peace
We at the Canberra Islamic Centre, Australia are saddened by the events in Colombo and want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. As a community we are still struggling to understand the gravity of this situation and for the loss of lives and injuries to many more people.
The victims are at rest and may the families find comfort, solace and a closure in their grief and may the injured have a quick and complete recovery.
May this vile act be a complete failure to drive a wedge amongst the peace-loving, compassionate and thoughtful communities of Sri Lanka.
As Muslims we firmly rejects any destruction of human life and places of worship including churches and condemn this heinous crime against humanity. We also want a world free of violence.
Words of sympathy and kindness cannot express adequately the sorrow and grief faced by the families but words can heal and our sentiments are sincere.
We stand with you for peace and love and the right to practice any faith in safety. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and please accept our sincerest condolences.
Zafar Ahmad
President
Canberra Islamic Centre

The Centre is a focal point for all Muslims in Canberra, providing a place for prayers, Islamic education and to seek Imam guidance. It also serves as a place for the community to meet for cultural events, exhibitions, access reference books, social and religious gatherings and functions.

The Centre represents the Muslim community to the media and local and federal government agencies and plays an important role in the community, and Inshaa’Allah it will continue to do so with the continued support, donations and hard work from it’s members and supporters. The Australian National Islamic Library is a public library housed within the CIC complex, and it provides a large range of books and publications on Islam and other religions.

A dedicated place for prayers separate from the main CIC building was a community need and as such Masjid project was launched in 2011. Initially with the community financial support project was started but later on with the generous financial support from the Government of Kuwait Sabah Al Ahmad Masjid and Islamic Education Centre was completed on 4th May 2018. Below are some photos of the Masjid opening and other events and festivals after the opening of Masjid.
