The history of the Muslim Association of Hamilton dates back to the 1960s, when the founding members, a group of Muslim McMaster University students originating from the Middle East and Southeast Asia, decided to settle in Hamilton.
For more than half a century the MAH has administered hundreds of diverse projects ranging from community development, outreach, education, and construction.
The original 15 founding families have grown to a community of over 40,000 Muslims consisting of over 35 nationalities who now call Hamilton home.
The Muslim Association of Hamilton (MAH) is a registered charitable organization dedicated to providing religious, educational, and social services for the diverse Muslim community in Hamilton.
Our charitable registration number is 12156-9677-RR-0001.
