20:55Now PlayingAccording to a new report, while the overall number of mosques in the United States continues to grow, increasing numbers of African American mosques are closing. In 2020, the US Mosque Survey numbered 2,769 mosques, a 31% increase from the 2010 count of 2,106 mosques. Congregational prayers held in mosques on Fridays (a practice known as Jumah) averaged 410 attendees before the pandemic in 2020. This was an increase over the 2010 figure of 353. Some 72% of mosques recorded a 10% or more increase in Jumah attendance during the reporting period. The 2010 survey found that 17% of America’s mosques were in urban centers. That number decreased to 6% in the 2020 survey due to the growth of new mosques in suburban and rural areas and the closure of many African American mosques in larger cities. As members of the first wave of African American Muslims are getting older, many African American mosques have struggled to remain open.
