Funeral office hours Mon-Fri 8:30am-4:00pm (613-722-8763). Site lists a separate after-hours contact, Abdul-Rasheed Hussain, 613-858-2729, for out-of-hours funeral needs. The coordinator arranges transfer, ghusl, kafan and the cemetery.
Janazah & burial services
Ottawa's oldest mosque (est. 1970s building, association since 1964); licensed by Ontario's Bereavement Authority (BAO Transfer Service License TSR-1555) to transfer and prepare the deceased. The after-hours funeral contact is a named individual's personal line rather than an office number, so confirm it is still current before relying on it.
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.
A detailed funeral price list is available from OMA; cemetery plot costs are handled separately through the Ottawa Muslim Cemetery.

What we haven’t confirmed
We could not establish: Ghusl for women, by women, 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.
