Mosque One: Oral Histories of Toronto’s First Mosque
Present Day, 3047 Dundas Street West, Toronto. (Google Streetview)
Assalamu Alaikum
Those of you who love history, here is a link to a rich history of Muslims and how they established first Mosque in Toronto, Canada in 1961.
This valuable work is done by our dear sister Kathy Bullock and her team. I have been in Toronto since 1970 yet I did not know that Malcolm X visited Toronto’s first Mosque. His picture is there on the front page.
If anyone of you has some other information or pictures, please forward it to Sr. Kathy and she will be happy to update the site.
If you know any one who is in research business or enjoy history, please forward it to them.
Enjoy surfing Muslims of Toronto in sixties!
