Islamic History Month and Islamic Heritage Month 2024 Events Across Canada

Islamic History Month (Canada) and Islamic Heritage Month (Ontario) starts on October 1st.

Muslim Link created a list of events taking place in recognition of the month in Ontario and other parts of Canada.

We will update the list throughout the month.

If there is an event you would like to add, please email details to info@muslimlink.ca

Editor's Note: Including an event on the list does not mean Muslim Link endorses it, we simply wish to inform our readers about what events are taking place in recognition of Islamic History/Heritage Month.

If you have any questions or concerns about a particular event, please contact the event organizer directly at chelby@muslimlink.ca
