MAPS was established to bring Muslim Community values to life in the Pacific Northwest.

The Muslim Association of Puget Sound (MAPS) started in 2006 with the intent of fostering a thriving community based on Muslim values like spirituality, service, humility, modesty, knowledge, family, unity, harmony, justice, and creating a better society. Since then, we have grown to become the largest Islamic center in the State of Washington, with a diverse community of more than 5,000 families from over 50 countries.

As a mosque, we provide year-round religious services and educational/spiritual programming for Muslims (and those seeking to learn about Islam), as well as addressing the religious needs of the community from birth to celebrating weddings to honoring final rites. We also provide a social hub to build relationships between Muslim individuals, families, and organizations.

But we do more. Much more. From community service to outreach and advocacy, interfaith bridge-building, celebration of culture and the arts, protecting the environment, and beyond. We invite you to learn more about MAPS online, or visit us in person, and become part of our dynamic community! Establish an active Masjid, adhering to Islamic principles, with a welcoming environment, high quality services, a platform for community engagement and ideas to flourish, that brings benefits to Muslims and the wider community.

Islam is the second largest religion in the world, with a global community of over 1.8 billion followers. A part of the Abrahamic (monotheistic) faith traditions, Islam has 5 pillars that serve as the foundation of religious practice for Muslims:
