The Muslim Community of the Western Suburbs is dedicated to creating and promoting a community of peace and caring where it and its members grow closer to God and through that closeness become positive contributors to their families and the community around them. As such MCWS lauds and welcomes acts of community service, neighborliness, and positive civic participation. Conversely MCWS stands against acts of violence, oppression, abuse and discrimination whether committed by those external to the Muslim community or from within. We pray for a world where peace and harmony prevails and the poor, oppressed, and abused are relieved of their challenges.
