The ISLAMIC FORUM OF CANADA is a community based Islamic organization whose primary focus is to educate the Muslim families to enable them to know more about their creator, His Messenger and be able to serve Him better. The organization is run by a prominent Imam who has a tremendous amount of insight, experience and the ability to impact knowledge in whatever level a Muslim might be in his/her quest for seeking knowledge of The Creator.

Even though the Islamic Forum is located in Brampton, the activities of the organization are spread far and wide.
