Mosques

Staten Island, the southernmost borough of New York City, offers a unique setting for Muslim life. While the island itself has a modest number of listed prayer places, the surrounding region within a 50 km radius provides a rich network of mosques and Islamic centers. The mapped data shows a concentration of prayer places in nearby Brooklyn, Manhattan, and parts of New Jersey, making it convenient for Staten Island residents to access a variety of Islamic institutions.

Among the prominent listed mosques are the Islamic Society of Bay Ridge (12.8 km away in Brooklyn), the American Turkish Eyup Sultan Cultural Center (14.9 km away in Brighton 3rd St, Brooklyn), and Makki Masjid Muslim Community Center (16.6 km away on Coney Island Ave, Brooklyn). In Manhattan, notable centers include Masjid Manhattan (19.8 km away on Cliff St) and Masjid Ar-Rahman (24.1 km away on W 29th St). Across the water in New Jersey, Masjid Al-Wali (21 km away in Edison) and the Muslim Center of Middlesex County (28 km away in Piscataway) serve as key prayer places. These locations, along with many others, ensure that Muslims in Staten Island have diverse options for prayer and community engagement.

The implantation of mosques and prayer rooms spans several areas: Brooklyn neighborhoods like Bay Ridge, Brighton Beach, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and Coney Island; Manhattan districts including Lower Manhattan, Midtown, and the Upper West Side; and New Jersey cities such as Edison, Piscataway, Paterson, Clifton, and Teaneck. Additionally, Long Island communities like Valley Stream, South Ozone Park, New Hyde Park, and Jamaica host Islamic centers. This widespread presence means that Staten Island Muslims can easily find a prayer place within a short drive or ferry ride, whether for daily prayers, Jumu'ah, or community events.

Always verify mosque addresses, prayer times, and accessibility before visiting, as details may change. Many listed mosques provide contact information; call or check their websites for Jumu'ah schedules, women's facilities, and parking. Distances are approximate and based on the provided coordinates.
