BEAUTIFUL MOSQUES OF THE WORLD:

THE MOSQUE OF DEARBORN MICHIGAN USA

The Islamic Center of America is a Shia mosque located in Dearborn Michigan. Although the institution dates back to 1964, the new mosque opened in 2005. It is the largest mosque in North America and the oldest Shia mosque in the United States. With its large Shia Arab population (consisting mostly of Lebanese), Dearborn is often called the "heart of Shiism" in the United States.

The Islamic Center of America is located at 19500 Ford Road in Dearborn. The institution was founded in 1963 by Muhammad Jawad Chitri, who remained its director until his death in 1994. The current Imam is Iraqi-born Sayed Hassan Al Qazwini.
