Winnipeg's Muslim community, numbering over 11,265 people, is served primarily by the Manitoba Islamic Association (MIA), incorporated in 1969, which built the province's first mosque, the Pioneer Mosque, and has since expanded to additional locations across the city. The community draws from South Asian, Middle Eastern, African, and Eastern European backgrounds, contributing to Winnipeg's growing halal food scene. Local mosques offer the five daily prayers, Jumu'ah services, Quran classes, and community programming for Manitoba's warm and welcoming Muslim population.
