The Claremont Main Road Mosque (CMRM), established in 1854, has a history of critically reflecting on and engaging with issues that affect us as Muslim citizens, locally and globally.
Many people have been drawn to this mosque over the years because of our strong commitment to the anti-Apartheid struggle and our compassionate and comprehensive vision of Islam.
Join us on our mission to build an institutional legacy for future generations, of bearing witness and upholding the virtues of social justice and compassion.
