The Salam Center
A Muslim space
for everyone
We now aim to establish a centre to cater for the needs of the Muslim community, a hub for information and support. We hope to create an open environment where both Muslims and others can gain traditional Islamic knowledge, partake in Muslim cultural activities and receive accurate information about Islam.
Our vision is to build a welcoming environment where people can come as the are and comfortably access Islamic knowledge and connect with knowledgeable individuals who can present Islam to them, answer their questions, and show them, through practical experience, how people live Islam.
The idea is specifically not to open just another mosque, but rather to launch an entirely new concept. In addition to spaces for prayer and worship, we envisage a café, a library, exhibition spaces and dedicated areas for seminars, workshops and cultural activities. In brief – a Muslim cultural center.
We firmly believe that this would fill a large void in the current landscape of Islam in Sweden, and Swedish society in general.Our hope is that the new Salam Center could function as a hub for places of Islamic propagation and support all over Europe.
