  • The Mosque of Shaikh M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the grounds of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship. The building of the mosque took 6 months and was done by the members of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship under the direction of M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen. It was completed by May, 1984, two years before his death in 1986. The official opening and dedication took place on May 27, 1984. The mosque is open to persons of all religions for private prayer, except during the Muslim daily Islamic prayers (salat). This is unlike other Islamic mosques that strictly limit entrance to Muslims only. The liturgical prayers follow the Hanafi tradition. The mosque provides activities similar to other Islamic mosques including the five daily Islamic prayers (salat), Jum'ah prayers every Friday, and classes in Arabic, Qur'an recitation, Salat and Islam. Unique to the mosque is the practice of early morning dhikr recitation (remembrance of God) using the practice instituted by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen.
