The existing Masjids were too far away to attend regularly and the need for a local Masjid was imperative so in April 1978 the Islamic Association of Greater Detroit was established.

In just one year, vigorous fund-raising accomplished purchasing a three-acre parcel of land

Once it was built the IAGD masjid became a focal point for Muslims in the area, and the gatherings grew.

The expanded facility opened in November, 2001. The expansion provided critically needed space in the prayer area and an enlarged dining hall, gymnasium, formal classrooms, conference room, library, professional kitchen and other amenities.

For local Buddhists, Detroit Zen Center is located in the City of Detroit, and Sunryunsa Temple is located in Ann Arbor. The Center was incorporated in 1983 when Suk Doe-Mahn s'nim came to America after his studies in Japan. Two existing Korean temples, Koryosa and Sunkooksa, consolidated and renamed to Mumunsa, and the Venerable Suk Doe-Mahn s'nim became the first resident minister of the temple. The name Mumunsa implies "There is no gate for a great mind", which is the aspiration to open hearts while removing that of suffering, peril, and obsession.
