Mosques

Oshawa, located in the Durham Region of Ontario, is home to a growing Muslim community supported by several mosques and Islamic centres within the city and its surrounding areas. Based on available mapped records, the listed prayer places are distributed across Oshawa itself and nearby municipalities including Ajax, Pickering, Courtice, and Scarborough. Within Oshawa, the Al-Arqam Islamic Center on Harmony Road North serves as a prominent local mosque, while the nearby Courtice area hosts the Al Rayan Islamic Centre - Courtice Masjid on Durham Regional Highway 2, providing convenient options for residents in the eastern part of the city.

Beyond Oshawa, the neighbouring city of Ajax features multiple listed mosques, including Masjid Al-Aqsaa on Station Street, Jamia Masjid Sayyidah Zainab on Station Street, Islamic Society of Ajax - Masjid Quba on Harwood Avenue North, Masjid Subhan Ajax on Kingston Road West, and the Durham United Ahlul Bayt Centre on Westney Road South. Pickering offers Masjid Usman (Pickering Islamic Centre) on Brock Road, Baitul Mahdi on Salem Road, and the Council of Islamic Guidance on Third Concession Road, among others. These locations, all within a 25 km radius of central Oshawa, illustrate a well-established network of prayer spaces serving the Durham Region.

For those willing to travel slightly farther, additional Islamic centres are listed in Scarborough and Toronto, such as Al-Misbah Islamic Center on Kingston Road, Baitul Jannah Islamic Center on Kingston Road, and Al-Huda Muslim Society on Kennedy Road. The mapped data shows that while Oshawa itself has a limited number of listed mosques, the broader area offers a diverse range of prayer places across multiple communities, making it feasible for Muslims living in or visiting Oshawa to find suitable locations for daily prayers, Jumu'ah, and community activities. This regional spread reflects the practical reality of Muslim life in Oshawa, where many residents rely on nearby cities for additional Islamic services.

When planning your visit, always verify the exact address, prayer times, and any access requirements directly with the mosque or Islamic centre. The distances provided are approximate and based on the central Oshawa coordinates. Some locations may have limited parking or specific entry points. Contact information, if available, should be confirmed through official sources. Note that listings are based on available mapped records and may not reflect all active prayer spaces in the area.
