Who we are

The Asiyah Women’s Center is the first Muslim women’s emergency shelter in New York City. Our mission is to provide temporary housing for victims of domestic violence and women facing eviction, and/or homelessness. By connecting under resourced women in our community to job opportunities, a range of mental health and medical services, permanent housing facilities, health insurance and legal assistance, we hope to empower women to get back on their feet and overcome their deeply traumatic personal circumstances. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said “Your Heaven lies under the feet of your Mother” (Ahmad, Nasai).

What we do Our center can house up to twenty women and children and is run by a trained female staff and a group of dedicated volunteers. The center ensures that all guests are cared for and are on a path to rebuild their lives. This will be done through:


  • Access to a safe, secure and comfortable living space

  • Counseling and therapy services
