Universal Consolidation of Islam, Holy Mosque (Historic)

The United Syrian Citizen's Society purchased this building in 1937 for the establishment of a mosque. In the 1940's and 50's the building was used for occasional lectures and other education activities, such as Arabic and Quranic classes. It is unclear when the group took the name Moslem Mosque of Highland Park, but this name was photographed in 1956 by the Detroit Free Press. The group incorporated in March 1958, as a "Moslem church" with a charter from Islamic Center, Washington D.C.. The incorporation provisions make several points, 1. That the group is to be non-sectarian, 2. That it hopes to buy, rent, or build a "mosque". Nonetheless, the group's membership was Shi'a and was closely connected to the Progressive Arabian Hashemite Society in Dearborn. Incorporating members included Mike Hamzey, Allia Agemy, Hussein Alli Hamood, Mustafa Salem, Mustafa Hayime, Abdul Beryy, Charles Allie, and Mohammed Berry. All but Mr. Berry lived in Highland Park. Berry lived on Electric Street in Detroit. In 1963, Hussein Hamood became the registered agent, and in 1964, Kamal Nasser became the agent. Shortly after this, the group folded their books into those of the Islamic Center of America (Detroit) in exchange for a position or two on the ICD's board of directors. The building was sold and the proceeds given to the ICD.
