The Directory

448 mosques, Islamic schools and Muslim cemeteries across Canada — with what each one actually provides, and what we could not confirm.

A record of 448 mosques, Islamic schools and Muslim cemeteries across 54 Canadian cities. It exists because the information a family needs in the first hours after a death — which mosque has a mortuary, who answers at night, which cemetery they bury at, what it costs — is scattered one organisation at a time, and nobody had put it in one place.

How this directory is verified

Three marks, used consistently on every listing:

ConfirmedWe found it stated by the organisation itself, or by a regulator.
Not confirmedWe could not establish it. We publish the gap rather than guess — and tell you to call and ask.
Confirmed absentThe organisation states it does not provide this.

No phone number here was written from memory. Every listing carries its sources, and unverified listings say so at the top.

Marker size and number = how many places the directory lists there. Counts come from the directory itself; marker positions are city centres, so close-together cities are grouped — ringed markers — and each group is broken out city by city just below. Drawn on a Lambert conformal conic projection; the far north is cropped, not forgotten — the directory has no listings north of Fort McMurray yet.

The two densest corners, up close

Almost half the directory sits around Lake Ontario’s western shore, and a tenth in BC’s lower mainland — too tight to read at national scale, so both get their own map. Same rule: select a city to open its page.

How this map is drawn

What the marks mean

Every count on this map comes from the directory’s own records — nothing is estimated. Markers sit at city centres, not at individual addresses; each city’s own page carries the street-level map. A ringed marker groups cities that overlap at this scale, and the list under the map names each one. No listing is ever dropped for lacking a location — anything we couldn’t place is still in the city lists below.

What this directory will not do

It will not tell you a cemetery has a Muslim section because it seems likely, or invent a janazah number because one probably exists. On a page a grieving family may read at three in the morning, a wrong number is worse than an empty field. Where a mosque names a cemetery on its own funeral page, we record that as the mosque’s statement — not the cemetery’s.
