Islamic Center of Cambridge

Funeral Arrangements
Last year, ICC built and completed the "body preparation facilities" and now the facilities are fully operational. The 'body' is washed, wrapped, and buried according to Islamic rituals (Sharia).

Janaza Prayer
Generally, the Janaza Prayer is performed in the Banquet Hall "A". After the prayer, the Janaza proceeds to the New Hope Cemetery or to any other Cemetery in the area.

Cemetery Plots in New Hope Cemetery
ICC has reserved many plots in a dedicated section of the New Hope Cemetery. The ICC has purchased quite a few burial plots in that section. This arrangement with the City of Cambridge has been in existence for more than 20 years. Religious burials and services are done according to Islamic rituals (sharia).
In Case of you are in need of Funeral and Burial services of the Islamic Centre of Cambridge for your loved ones, please contact the ICC at 519-740-6855 anytime during the day or night and leave a message. Someone will respond to you soon after your call.

All Muslim Cemetery
The ICC is working on a project of All Muslim Cemetery. It is planning to establish and maintain All Muslim Cemetery. It will be a religious cemetery exclusively dedicated to Muslims. In a Muslim cemetery our identity will be preserved for our community, and for our children and children of children down the line. It is more likely that our families and friends will visit us in the future in a Muslim cemetery, where they can find their roots and be proud of them. Our graves, in an exclusively Muslim cemetery, will be a source of strength for them and a reminder of their cultural heritage.

The ICC strongly believes that the acquisition of this facility will serve as an important regional anchor for our religious community. In creating a place of permanent rest dedicated exclusively for Muslims, the identity of Muslims in the Waterloo and Wellington region will be sustained.
