About Us

Vision

We envision a future where every Muslim has access to the resources and community support they need to learn, live, and strengthen their faith.

Mission

At the Al-Furqan Learning Centre, we strive to provide a nurturing environment for education, worship, and community engagement, empowering fellow Muslims to learn, live, and grow in their Islamic faith and values.

Al-Furqan Learning Centre Profile

The Al-Furqan Learning Centre, located in Red Deer, Alberta, has been dedicated to serving the community since its establishment on December 18, 2018. Initially, the organization operated from a rented unit in a commercial building on the north side of Red Deer. Its founding was driven by the absence of a licensed Islamic school in the area, creating a demand for Islamic education.

As the first Islamic organization on the north side of Red Deer, Al-Furqan Learning Centre aimed to address this need and provide quality education to the local Muslim community. Over time, the organization received numerous requests from parents and community members for a mosque. In response to this growing demand, the organization expanded its mission in 2019 to include masjid services.

The decision to incorporate Masjid services was motivated by the desire to establish a dedicated space for prayer, gatherings, and community events. This expansion allowed the Al-Furqan Learning Centre to become a central hub for the Muslim community on the north side of Red Deer.

Recognizing the need for accessible facilities and services in the downtown area, the organization took a significant step forward in 2021 by purchasing a property in that location. This strategic move enabled the Al-Furqan Learning Centre to expand its services and reach a broader audience. The center’s goal was to provide accessible Islamic education and masjid services to both the north side and downtown areas of Red Deer.
