Islamic Center of Passaic County (Clifton) — Attraction in Clifton

⭐☆☆☆☆ Very Disappointed with the Behavior at Eid

I came to ICPC for the Eid celebration, expecting a warm and welcoming environment. Unfortunately, I experienced the opposite. I took four cookies — nothing extreme — and somehow that became an issue. I was confronted over something so minor, in a way that felt rude and unnecessary, especially on a day meant for joy and togetherness.

Even worse, I saw a sister get yelled at just for trying to get a cup of coffee. Instead of calmly guiding her, someone shouted, “Go to the women’s side!” — completely disrespectful and uncalled for. This kind of treatment doesn’t reflect the values of our deen or what a masjid should stand for.

Then, to top it off, some guy — and I’ll gladly share the picture — had the nerve to confront me like I was in the wrong, talking down to me without even knowing the full story. Acting like a self-appointed enforcer of the rules while ignoring the real problem — the lack of adab and kindness from the staff or volunteers.

This is a place that should feel like a second home for all Muslims, not somewhere you feel judged or attacked. ICPC needs to seriously reflect on how it handles its events and how its people treat others.

Also if this guy is married imagine the tyrant behavior he does behind closed doors and the lack of communication...

One of my favorite masjids in Jersey. The prayer space and bathrooms are always VERY clean. The atmosphere in the masjid is calming, I always feel spiritually rejuvenated praying here. Also, there are constant events ALWAYS going on. Especially in Ramadan, but even throughout the year, there is something for everybody. The imams are all respectful, knowledgeable, and willing to impart their wisdom to the community. The attendees are diverse, and there are a lot of youth and young professionals coming to this masjid, which I really appreciate. Overall, fantastic masjid, and I hope the management continues to keep up the amazing work they are doing....

Told me to reconcile with the man that r&ped me but wouldn't tell him what he did was wrong or cutting me off financially to beg for food and basic essentials is haram. They always take the husband's side even if he is wrong. They don't believe or help women. I left countless VMs crying and asking for help and nothing. Allah is truly our only Sustainer and Helper. What if a woman turned to selling herself or other desperate means? In Islam you're supposed to stand up to domestc volence and oppression of any kind esp women being weaker and...
