Janazah & burial services

One of the largest, oldest-established mosques in the GTA (built 1991) at the NE corner of Highways 400/401 in Downsview, on 2.2 acres. Site confirms 'Funeral Coordination Service' and a marriage officer, but does not publish details of mortuary/ghusl/cold-storage facilities — worth a phone call to confirm. Runs a weekend children's school (ages 5-15, Arabic + Islamic studies) and a teen/adult tarbiya group.

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.
