Who We Are

Mohammadia Center of Virginia: Building a Legacy of Faith and Community

Established in 1998, the Mohammadia Center of Virginia has become a cornerstone for the Shia Muslim community in the Washington Metropolitan area. Our diverse membership includes professionals, lifelong residents, students, and business owners, predominantly from Pakistan and India. Over the years, we have expanded to welcome members from Iranian, Afghan, and Iraqi backgrounds through our collaboration with the Imam Ali Center.

In 2016, recognizing the limitations of shared facilities, we took a significant step by acquiring our own property at 4291 Prince William Parkway, Woodbridge, VA 22192. This milestone, achieved with the support of the community through cash donations and Qarz e Hasna (interest-free loans), has enabled us to secure and prepare the land for construction. We are now debt-free and ready for the next phase of development.

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to build a comprehensive community center that embodies the core principles of Islam—Tawhid (Oneness of God), Adal (Justice of God), Nubuwwat (Prophethood), Imammat (Leadership), and Qiyamat (Resurrection). We aim to create a center that fulfills our spiritual, social, and cultural needs, reflecting our vision to promote the teachings of Ahl Ul Bayt (AS) and the legacy of Imam Ali (AS) and Imam Hussain (AS).

Purpose and Goals

Purpose:

• To honor the Wilayat of Ameer Ul Mo’mineen Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib (AS), as declared by Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) at Ghadeer e Khum.

• To propagate the teachings of Islam as exemplified by Ahl Ul Bayt (AS).

Goals:

• Celebrate significant religious events and anniversaries.
• Offer educational programs such as Saturday or Sunday School, youth programs, Quranic classes, and more.
