The Reykjavík Mosque (Icelandic: Moskan í Reykjavík) is a Sunni mosque and gathering area for the Muslims who are living in Iceland. It is located in the Ármúli district of Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland. The mosque was opened in 2002 by the Association of Muslims in Iceland after requesting the city government to build a mosque in 2000, [1] although the city government still has not gave any response to the building of a mosque. The Reykjavík Mosque is funded by the Association of Muslims in Iceland. It offers Friday Juma prayers every week and it is open for prayers nightly also. There are two imams, Salmann Tamimi a Palestinian immigrant who is also president of the Association of Muslims in Iceland, and an imam from Morocco.
