About Mother Mosque of America

Religion, Mosques, Interesting Places

The Mother Mosque of America, once known as The Rose of Fraternity Lodge and also known as Moslem Temple, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States, is the oldest standing purpose built mosque in the United States. The Al-Sadiq Mosque in Chicago is older by a decade but was converted from an existing building to be used as a mosque. The Mother Mosque of America is also slightly older than the Al-Rashid Mosque in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The oldest purpose built mosque was torn down in the 1970s near Ross, North Dakota. Recently a smaller mosque was built near that site to commemorate its history.
