Located in the centre of Massachusetts is a community of over 250 American Muslim families many of whom have moved to the United States from all over the world. Besides there are Muslims born and brought up here. Most of the community members are professionals such as doctors, engineers , architects and teachers besides young students in the various colleges and universities. The community is economically and socially quite affluent and productive. Although ethnically the community is diverse with people from such places as Syria, Kuwait, Palestine, India, Pakistan, Lebanon, etc., they are bound together by the strong chain of their faith, Islam, their traditions and their love for freedom. Besides maintaining a very active mosque, the community prides itself in running two full time Islamic schools and a Sunday school.
