Janazah & burial services

Also known as Farooq Masjid (Twitter/X handle @FarooqMasjid). Actual street address is 282 Elgin Street North - a commonly circulated '252 Elgin St N' figure is incorrect. Runs a Madrasah (weekend/part-time Islamic school with a Hifz class per Madrasah News archive); the masjid's own 'Masjid Facilities' checklist explicitly lists 'Funeral Service' and 'Family Counselling' as offered, but does not itemize ghusl/mortuary/cold storage/transport, so those remain unconfirmed. Follows the Hilal Committee of Metropolitan Toronto & Vicinity for moon sighting. www.cambridgemuslimsociety.org 302-redirects to the org's actual site at cms.ad-din.site.

What we haven’t confirmed

We could not establish: On-site mortuary, Cold storage, Ghusl facility, Ghusl for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased and more. Those are published as gaps rather than filled with a plausible guess. If you know the answer — especially if you are from this organisation — tell us and we will verify and update the listing.

Planning ahead, rather than in a crisis?

The two things a funeral coordinator asks a family for are the burial wishes and the will. Recording where your will is kept and working out the inheritance shares now spares your family both questions at the worst possible moment.
