Mosques • Chicago

Chicago offers a rich tapestry of Islamic prayer spaces, with 20 listed mosques and prayer centers mapped within a 50 km radius of the city center. These range from the Downtown Islamic Center, located just 3.7 km away at 231 S State St, to suburban centers like the Mosque Foundation in Bridgeview (19 km) and the Orland Park Prayer Center (34.4 km). The distribution reflects a widespread presence across the metropolitan area, with notable clusters in Chicago proper—such as the Muslim Community Center (MCC Chicago) at 4380 N Elston Ave, Jamia Masjid of Chicago at 6340 N Campbell Ave, and Mosque Maryam at 7351 S Stony Island Ave—as well as in nearby suburbs.

Beyond the city limits, prayer places are established in several suburban sectors. In the southwest, the Mosque Foundation serves the Bridgeview area, while the Islamic Center of Naperville (ICN) Al Hilal- Ogden is located 47 km away in Naperville. The northern suburbs feature the Muslim Education Center / Masjid / MCC Academy in Morton Grove, Sacred Learning Center in Lincolnwood, and Masjid-E-Suffah in Skokie. Western suburbs such as Villa Park (Islamic Foundation of Villa Park), Wheaton (Islamic Center of Wheaton), and Glendale Heights (Masjid Ibrahim- Muslim Society Inc.) also host listed centers. These locations, along with others in Berkeley, Schaumburg, Rolling Meadows, Bolingbrook, Streamwood, and Wood Dale, illustrate the broad implantation of mosques and prayer rooms across the Chicago region.

For Muslims living in or visiting Chicago, this network of prayer places provides accessible options for worship and community connection. The downtown area is served by the Downtown Islamic Center, ideal for workers and travelers, while neighborhood mosques like Jamia Masjid of Chicago and Mosque Maryam cater to local residents. Suburban centers often offer larger facilities and community programs. Whether you are a new arrival, student, or family, the mapped listings help you locate prayer spaces near your home, workplace, or travel route. Always verify addresses and contact details directly, as services and hours may vary.

Check the address and distance of each mosque from your location before visiting. Many centers have websites or phone numbers listed in their profiles; use those to confirm prayer times, Jumu'ah schedules, and any special arrangements. Note that some mosques may have separate entrances or women's sections, but this information is not included in the current data and should be verified directly.
