Who We Are
Historical Background
The Islamic Center of South Bay – LA (ICSB), also known as Masjid Al-Noor, was established in October of 1982 by a group of families living in the South Bay area of Southern California. Prayers and initial programs were conducted at the Courtyard Mall Community Room in Rolling Hills Estates. As attendance increased, the center moved to the Torrance YMCA, and then to the Hermosa Beach Community Center. In 1985, within three years of forming, a permanent location was acquired at 25816 Walnut Street, Lomita, California, and remains the current location of ICSB.
Population of the South Bay and attendance at ICSB have both grown since 1985. Because of ICSB, Muslim families and Muslim-owned businesses continue to establish themselves nearby, contributing to economic and social stability in the area. Through the years, ICSB has responded to the growing responsibilities to its congregants and community by purchasing adjacent properties to enhance the ICSB campus. Presently, ICSB facilities include a prayer hall, library, four classrooms, an office, covered patio, four bathrooms, wudu facilities, parking lot, kitchen, rental property, and encompasses about 62,000 square feet.
Status

3 months agoMashAllah, wonderful Jammi'. Great for Jumah. It's always spotless. It has a lovely kids' area next to the women's prayer area upstairs. The library has a vast collection of books. They are currently working on improving the interior design.

3 weeks agoI have been calling the mosque for help for months for help and I haven’t received any kind of help. Although they receive donations they don’t help people in need at all. T hi etc drive Cadillacs and the newest cars from people that donate money. The people that work at that mosque aren’t good at all. Also the mosque isn’t good because of the people there.
