Frequently asked questions
Who can become a member?
Every Muslim in Greater Houston can join as a member. Friends of the community who are not Muslim can join as Associate members (no voting or office).
How much are dues?
Dues are set by the Board each year. Current amounts are shown on the Plans and dues page. Dues are not refundable.
When does my membership end?
Annual memberships run from January 1 to December 31. Life memberships never expire.
What is the June 30 deadline?
To vote in a year’s elections, your dues for that year must be paid by June 30.
Can I pay for my spouse or parent?
Yes. The Bylaws allow dues to be paid by a relative by blood or marriage. We will ask how you are related.
How is my Islamic Center chosen?
By your home address. If you live within five miles of a zone border, you can ask to join a nearby center instead.
Is my information safe?
We collect only what the Bylaws require, card payments are handled by Stripe, and ID images are deleted after review.
