Run responsibly, for the community
How EMC is structured, who leads it, and how it stays accountable to the people it serves.
A constitution-led organization
EMC is based in Espoo and founded on the Qur'an, Sunnah, and Islamic laws. It is organized as a member-based community organization, led by an elected board and supported by working divisions, with all activity guided by a written constitution.
Open to any Muslim living in Finland
Any Muslim living in Finland may apply to become a member of EMC, subject to board approval. Membership allows a formal voice in the direction of the organization, alongside the many community activities that remain open to all, regardless of membership status.
- Open application, reviewed by the board
- No barrier to attending prayer, classes, or events
- Membership supports long-term accountability and direction
Elected leadership, clear roles
Seven divisions, one mission
Day-to-day work at EMC is organized across seven divisions, each responsible for a distinct part of community life.
Funded by the community
EMC is supported entirely through voluntary donations and community assistance — not government grants or outside funding. The Finance Division is responsible for budgeting and oversight.
