About The Ismaili Jamatkhana

The Ismaili Jamatkhana fosters an appreciation of pluralism and seeks to enhance relationships among faith communities, government, and civil society.

 “The Center will be a place of peace, humility, reflection and prayer. It will be a place of search and enlightenment... It will be a center that will seek to bond men and women of this pluralist country to replace the fragility in their narrow spheres by the strength of civilized society bound together by a common destiny.”
