About Us
Husainiya Center of Tucson (HCT) is a tax-exempt non-profit religious organization.
The HCT is an Islamic Shia’a center based on the teachings of our beloved Prophet
Mohammad (PBUH) and his Progeny, 12 Imams (AS). The purpose for which this HCT is established is based on
the belief that Islam is a true way of life. Based on this principle, our mission is to practice
Islam as a way of life, to promote Islamic ideas, teaching, and cultures in Arizona,
and throughout the United States.
The HCT's devoted volunteer teachers educate the community on the true Islamic thoughts and cultures. We work to
clarify the baseless Islamic ideas that are falsehoods, and unfortunately, spreading among communities everywhere.
The HCT is active in community outreach by supporting refugees and newcomers in
finding jobs, becoming established, and transitioning into the community.
In addition to the establishment of the Islamic studies, the HCT’s goal is to promote
friendly relations and build understanding between the Muslim community and other religious groups.
HCT was operating in various houses on a temporary basis for many
years. Finally by the Grace of Almighty Allah (SWT), our new center was established and officially opened
on April 21, 2019, 15th of Sha’aban, the Anniversary of the birth of our beloved 12th Imam, Imam Mahdi
A’ajalallah Ta’ala Farajah (May Allah fasten his coming).
