The Islamic Society of Baltimore was established in 1969 by a handful of families who held weekly meetings and Friday prayers at Johns Hopkins University. As the community continued to grow, the need for a larger facility also grew. In 1982, more than a decade later, ISB purchased an 8-acre lot at its current location and built Masjid Al-Rahmah. Three years later, a housing complex was built adjacent to the Masjid and by 1987, and a full-time primary school had been established. Within the next ten years, ISB founded the Quran Academy and Sunday school which were in full swing just in time for the completion of the multi-purpose hall in 1997. To meet the growing needs of our community we are continuous expanding both our services, as well as our physical footprint. The Islamic Society of Baltimore (ISB) is a nonprofit community organization offering a wide range of services, including full-time educational programs, a free health clinic, a soup kitchen, a nursery, summer camps, after-school programs, and senior support services. Additionally, ISB provides youth and sports activities, interfaith initiatives, community and government relations, financial assistance, social services,
