The number of Muslim families settling in the North Kansas City and the adjacent areas of Parkville, Liberty, Gladstone, Claycomo, Riverside, Weatherby Lake, Lake Waukomis and Smithville, has been steadily increasing over the past two decades. To cater for the religious, spiritual, social and educational needs of the growing Northland Muslim community as well as to serve as a focal point for Dawah and interfaith dialogue, there was an urgent need to establish an Islamic Center in the area starting with the construction of a Mosque.
Accordingly in 2004, the Islamic Center of Northland (ICN) was incorporated with the State of Missouri, as a Nonprofit Organization and its Board of Directors were elected as per the Constitution. With no premises of its own, the ICN arranged to rent a hall at the Hillcrest Church Facilities on Vivion Road, Kansas City for the Friday prayers and the Taraweeh prayers in Ramadan. This ad-hoc arrangement continued for about 14 years thanks to the courtesy of the Hillcrest Church.
