About Masjid Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq is an Islamic center serving as a masjid and a gathering place for the Muslim community in Hayward and the larger Bay Area. Story Masjid Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq is an Islamic center serving as a masjid and a gathering place for the Muslim community in Hayward and the larger Bay Area. The Islamic Center consists of a 11,000 sq. foot building providing a main musullah (prayer hall) and a private sisters’ musallah, a multipurpose meeting area, nearly 4,000 sq. feet of second-floor classrooms, office space, a library, and a warming kitchen. Jummah (Friday) prayers are at 1:30 p.m (March to November) and 12:30 p.m. (November to March). The sermon is in Farsi and Arabic. Eid prayers and other special Islamic and cultural events/holidays are also held at Masjid Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq. Our major educational services are weekend classes for children and adults. These classes teach the Qur’an and Arabic, religious studies, as well as reading and writing lessons in Pashto and Farsi, which are the languages spoken in Afghanistan. Social services include zakaat and sadaqa (alms and charity) distribution as well as funeral services including on-site washing and shrouding the body prior to the Janazah prayer and burial. Masjid Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, which is managed by the Afghan Refugee Islamic Community Center, is blessed with the knowledge and guidance of several local leaders including our resident Imam Qari Abdul Basir Durani as well as the services of countless volunteers, the Board of Directors, and the Executive Committee. Mission Ever since a spike in Muslim migration to the area in the mid-1980s, Muslims in Hayward have been under-served. Our mission is to fill that gap by establishing a Muslim and cultural family life center to meet the spiritual, social, civic, and cultural needs of all area Muslims. In addition to learning about Islamic teachings at the masjid, children and adult students learn the two official languages of Afghanistan (Pashto and Farsi) as well as Afghan history, geography, and culture.
