Ummah Nabawiah Masjid (UNM)

Janazah & burial services

Registered charity since 1994, ~28,000 sq ft building, capacity 800+; Afghan-community-founded mosque also known as the "Afghan Mosque." Own site explicitly states they have a "well-equipped mortuary to give ghusl (bathing) and cold/refrigerated room for the storage of bodies" and provide facilities/volunteers to assist with funeral arrangements — one of the more genuinely funeral-capable mosques found in Etobicoke. Also offers nikah (marriage) services.

What we haven’t confirmed

We could not establish: Ghusl for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased, 24-hour janazah line. 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.
