Daily Salah & Jumu’ah Prayer Times

ICC holds the five daily congregational prayers: Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. Prayer-start and Iqamah times are not always the same.

October 29, 2026 Prayer Schedule

These times are specifically for Thursday, October 29, 2026, not permanent daily hours. Maghrib, Fajr and other prayer times change with the date.

Friday Jumu’ah Schedule

The ICC homepage currently advertises three Friday congregations. An older downloadable Friday information sheet describes only two services; rely on the live homepage for current Jumu’ah scheduling.

How to Check the Correct Prayer Time

1. Open the ICC Tempe official website.
2. Find the prayer timetable near the top of the homepage.
3. Select the correct date or use its monthly calendar.
4. Read the Starts and Iqamah columns separately.
5. For Friday, confirm which of the three advertised Jumu’ah services you plan to attend.
6. Check for Ramadan, Eid, daylight-saving-season or special-event announcements before traveling.

Programs, Classes & Community Activities

ICC Tempe offers religious education, study gatherings, volunteer opportunities and social-support programs. The following schedules and services are published by the center.

How to Join a Class or Halaqa

1. Visit the official ICC Programs page.
2. Choose the study session, youth gathering, women’s class or outreach program.
3. Check the current meeting day, start time and location.
4. Look for registration, age eligibility and any published fee.
5. If no enrollment instructions appear, contact 480-894-6070.
6. For programs after prayer, arrive with time for the prayer and transition to the class.

ICC publishes a schedule of community activities, but not every event has a listed registration price. Do not assume a fee or free admission without checking the individual event.

Imam Appointments, Counseling & Religious Guidance

ICC provides appointment-based opportunities to discuss religious matters, personal concerns and community needs with its imam or designated staff.

How to Request an Appointment

1. Open the official ICC homepage.
2. Find Schedule Imam Appointments & Guidance Services.
3. Choose the appointment scheduling option.
4. Select an available date and time.
5. Provide the requested contact details and a brief description of your question.
6. Keep the booking confirmation and check whether the session is in person or remote.

For confidential, urgent or time-sensitive matters, contact the mosque office directly instead of assuming an online appointment will be immediately available.

Islamic Marriage (Nikah): Documents & Fees

ICC Tempe performs Islamic marriage ceremonies and publishes the requirements for arranging a Nikah.

Required Documents

• Original Arizona marriage license.
• Valid photo identification or passport for the bride and groom.
• Identification for witnesses, if applicable.
• Appointment confirmation with the imam.

The center’s published instructions identify the bride and groom as required attendees and describe two Muslim witnesses as optional in its listed appointment requirements. Contact the imam to clarify the circumstances and requirements for your ceremony.

Published Suggested Nikah Donations

The center describes these as suggested donations. Confirm the appointment, location, availability and final amount in advance.

How to Arrange Your Nikah

1. Obtain an Arizona marriage license through the appropriate county clerk.
2. Visit the official ICC Marriage Service page.
3. Follow the appointment scheduling instructions for Imam Omar.
4. Prepare the original license, identification and any requested witness details.
5. Confirm where the ceremony will take place and the suggested donation.
6. Attend the appointment and follow the imam’s document instructions.

ICC states that the imam signs and returns the Arizona marriage license to the court and issues an Islamic marriage certificate. The Islamic certificate and the government-issued marriage record serve different purposes.

Funeral & Janazah Services: Steps and Costs

ICC Tempe coordinates Islamic funeral arrangements, including body preparation, funeral prayer, transport, burial and cemetery services. The center operates Al Rahma Cemetery for its funeral services.

Published Funeral Service Prices

The center states these packages include ghusl, wrapping or shrouding, funeral prayer, transportation, burial and headstone arrangements. Confirm exactly what is included and whether outside costs apply.

Funeral Arrangement Process

3. Email the documents: Send the completed form to aewais@tempemosque.com, following staff instructions.
4. Meet the funeral director: Confirm arrangements, required legal paperwork, costs and payment.
5. Arrange ghusl and Janazah prayer: Coordinate timing with ICC Tempe.
6. Confirm burial: The center identifies Al Rahma Cemetery, 21564 N Rahma Street, Maricopa, AZ 85239, as its burial location.

Accommodation & Room Rental Near ASU

ICC Tempe advertises residential accommodation within the mosque compound near Arizona State University’s Tempe campus. This is different from renting a public community hall for an event.

How to Ask About the Apartment

1. Visit the official ICC Apartment page.
2. Review the amenities and living arrangements.
3. Use the room-booking inquiry option.
4. Ask about availability, rent, deposit, utilities and lease duration.
5. Confirm what is private versus shared, including kitchen and bathroom access.
6. Review the written agreement before sending money.

A posted accommodation description is not a guarantee of vacancy. The center’s general website does not publish standard public event-hall rental prices for ICC Tempe.

Volunteering, Outreach & Community Support

ICC organizes volunteering, social activities, education, charitable giving and neighborhood engagement for its Tempe community.

Programs include More Than a Meal, Move & Connect, Compassion Connection, youth activities and educational gatherings. The center also promotes community support and interfaith engagement.

How to Volunteer

1. Choose an interest such as education, outreach, event setup or community support.
2. Open the official program listing and check current initiatives.
3. Use the volunteer form linked from the ICC homepage.
4. Provide your contact details and availability.
5. Ask about orientation, scheduling and any necessary checks.
6. Confirm the location and role before attending.

ICC is in downtown Tempe near Arizona State University and the Tempe Transit Center. Its central location is convenient for students, workers and residents but can make Friday parking difficult.

Friday Parking: Important Rules

ICC has published Friday parking instructions. Some details come from an older mosque information sheet, so confirm current garage arrangements and any validation policy before relying on them.

• Allow approximately 30 minutes before Friday prayer to locate parking and enter.
• Onsite parking is limited.
• Do not park in designated staff, imam, reserved or coned-off spaces.
• Do not double-park or obstruct the alley serving the mosque.
• Public paid parking and garages are available in downtown Tempe.
• Older ICC guidance identifies Brickyard and City Hall garages with possible office ticket validation; current validation availability is not confirmed.
• Downtown special events and ASU event days can affect parking access and prices.

Friday Entrances & Wudu

ICC’s previously published Friday visitor guidance identifies the south-side entrance for men and the north-side entrance for women. It also describes additional Wudu stations on the north side of the building.

As these arrangements may change, confirm the current entrance signs and follow mosque staff instructions on arrival.

Public Transportation

The nearby Tempe Transit Center provides access to Valley Metro services. Confirm the current light rail, streetcar or bus route for your starting location through the official transit planner.

For a comparison of public transportation and visitor planning for another Arizona community facility, see the Phoenix Deer Valley Community Center guide. It is in a different part of the Phoenix metro area.

First-Time Visitor & Community Tour Guidance

ICC welcomes community engagement and provides educational outreach. If you are visiting as a guest or with a school or community group, arrange the visit in advance.

1. Call 480-894-6070 or email the ICC office.
2. Explain whether the visit is for prayer, education, a community tour or a specific service.
3. Give the proposed date, group size and any accessibility needs.
4. Ask about appropriate clothing, photography and building access arrangements.
5. Confirm whether a staff member or guide will be available.
6. Arrive on time and follow local visitor instructions.

ICC’s historical Friday guide advises that organized tours are generally not scheduled during busy Friday congregations. Contact the office before attempting a group visit on Friday.

Before You Go

• Check the actual date’s Iqamah schedule.
• For Jumu’ah, choose the appropriate published congregation.
• Allow extra travel time during Friday prayers and ASU events.
• Confirm appointments for marriage, funeral planning or imam consultation.
• For financial assistance, prepare the documents requested by the Zakat team.
• For classes, verify current schedules and whether registration is required.
• For lodging inquiries, obtain written prices and rental terms.
• For accessibility needs, ask the office about the appropriate entrance and accommodations.

Visitors comparing typical recreation-center amenities with religious and social-service facilities can use the community recreation center planning guide to understand why different centers have different schedules, admissions and purposes.
