The Heart of Our Campus

In this video, join Ustadh Feraidoon Mojadedi to visit the Zaytuna College musalla. This new project is a central place for students, faculty, and staff to come together and pray the daily prayers in jama’ah, as the Holy Prophet ﷺ urged us to. This blessed place is a sanctuary from the world, from which the call to prayer crosses the campus. We’re delighted to share this milestone with you and need your support to finish this project.
