Prayer times at Masjid Al-Istiqama

Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not Masjid Al-Istiqama’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check istiqamamasjid.com for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

Jumu’ah

Janazah & burial services

English-language-focused Sunni mosque and learning centre in a plaza unit on Martin Grove Rd, teaching on the methodology of the Sahabah and the early generations. Contact details re-confirmed from the masjid's own Contact page on 2026-08-16: 647-477-2166, info@istiqamamasjid.com, 1357 Martin Grove Rd Unit #1, Etobicoke, ON M9W 4X6. NO JANAZAH INFORMATION IS PUBLISHED. The whole site was read this session - Home, About (with Legal Statement, Finances, Efforts Against Extremism), Education (Classes, Children's Weekend School, Summer Hifdh Program), Programs & Services (Services, Events) and Contact - and the Services page enumerates exactly five services: Prayers ('Open for 5 daily prayers'), Jummah, Fatwa ('Islamic verdicts regarding jurisprudential matters pertaining to muslims in the west'), Classes and Events. Funerals, janazah, ghusl and burial appear nowhere on the site. That is an enumerated list that omits janazah rather than a published statement that janazah is not offered, so every funeral field is left unconfirmed rather than marked 'no'. The masjid has no Facebook or Instagram page of its own; it publishes on Telegram (t.me/istiqamamasjid), YouTube and Spreaker, none of which carried funeral information. CALL 647-477-2166 AND ASK before referring a family here.

Each line below is either confirmed from the organisation’s own material or marked as not confirmed. We publish the gaps rather than guess at them.

About Masjid Al-Istiqama

The masjid describes itself as 'established as a centre of learning and a source of guidance in Toronto, Canada, with the aim of promoting the methodology of the Sahabah (companions) and the early generations of scholars of Islam to the English-speaking Muslims', under the site-wide tagline 'Guiding Hearts Through the Way of the Salaf'. Its legal statement discloses the corporate name: 'Masjid Al-Istiqama incorporated as As-Salaf As-Saalih and located at 1-1357 Mrtin Grove Road, Etobicoke, ON Canada M9W 4X6'. No CRA charity registration could be found under 'Istiqama', 'Salaf' or 'Saalih', and the masjid publishes no registration number; its finances page says only that 'the Masjid's expenses are divided up amongst brothers and sisters in our community to cover the cost of the rent'. It publishes no founding year.

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.
