Janazah & burial services

Registered charity (CRA registration 24 December 2010); musallah originally established September 2009 at 87 Hanbidge Crescent, with a new masjid project under development. ISR raised $300,000 and built the Regina Muslim Cemetery at Richardson, which opened in 2021 on 20 acres the society owns; CBC reported the community also gained its own facility to store the deceased, removing the need for a funeral home. The society's own cemetery page still uses project language and publishes Cemetery Rules & Regulations (September 2024), a burial application form and a pre-authorized-debit option. Contact listed as Shahid Khawaja, 306-209-3912. Registered office: 206-408 Broad St., Regina, SK S4R 1X3.

What we haven’t confirmed

We could not establish: On-site mortuary, Ghusl facility, Ghusl for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased, Janazah prayer 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.
