Prayer times at Shah Jalal Islamic Centre Montreal
Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not Shah Jalal Islamic Centre Montreal’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check shahjalalislamiccentre.com for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

These are calculated times, not Shah Jalal Islamic Centre Montreal’s jamaa‘ah times. They are worked out in your browser from this masjid’s own coordinates and today’s date, using the ISNA convention — the same arithmetic a printed timetable uses. What a masjid announces is something else: iqamah is set by the masjid, usually a chosen number of minutes after the prayer begins, and many hold it at a fixed clock time for weeks at a stretch. So the two will not match, and they are not meant to. For the times the congregation actually prays, check the masjid’s own site or phone (514) 935-1213.
Janazah & burial services
Founded circa 2007 by Montreal's Bangladeshi community, in the Griffintown/Little Burgundy area. Site's Services menu explicitly lists 'Funeral' as a distinct offered service (alongside Food Pantry, Marriage Ceremony, Counseling) — treated as evidence of provides_services beyond mere prayer hosting, but the exact scope (ghusl, mortuary, cemetery coordination) is not detailed on site; call to confirm specifics before relying on this for urgent need. Education programs: Weekend Maktab and a separate Full Time Hifz (Quran memorization) program.

About Shah Jalal Islamic Centre Montreal
Shah Jalal Islamic Centre Montreal's own site says it was "Established in 1998," though its CRA charitable registration (as Centre Islamique Shah Jalal Montreal) is effective only from November 13, 2019 — a 21-year gap between the claimed founding and formal charity registration. It offers marriage ceremonies, counselling, a food pantry, and funeral services from its Rue Workman location.
From the organisation’s own pages, checked 13 Aug 2026 — see the sources below.
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.
