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

These are calculated times, not Danforth Islamic Centre’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 (416) 916-2853.

About Danforth Islamic Centre
Danforth Islamic Centre says it "has been serving the Muslim community in East York since 2005," though its CRA charitable registration is effective only from July 2013 — an 8-year gap between the claimed founding and formal registration. It offers a wide range of services including nikah, marriage and family counselling, wali (guardian) support for new Muslim women, ruqya, newcomer settlement support, and funeral/janazah support with ghusl coordination.
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 for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased, 24-hour janazah line 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.
