Prayer times at Vancouver Islamic Center (formerly Fraserview Muslim Community Services)
Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not Vancouver Islamic Center (formerly Fraserview Muslim Community Services)’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check thefmcs.ca for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

These are calculated times, not Vancouver Islamic Center (formerly Fraserview Muslim Community Services)’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 (604) 780-9121.
Janazah & burial services
Community centre/mosque in the Fraserview neighbourhood; site states funeral/janazah service details are 'not yet available' online and to contact them directly for an immediate case. Offers Quranic instruction via online Zoom classes for children and adults (not a formal weekend school), and Friday food distribution. Confirm janazah capability by phone before referring a family here.
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.
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.
