  3. Adults with children 7 and under must pray in the designated spaces identified at ICOI.
  4. No smoking on the ICOI premises.
  5. Please turn off your cellphones during prayer times.  It would be best if a habit was kept of doing this before entering the prayer areas.
  6. No gathering or talking in the lobby or outside the main entrance doors during prayer times.
  7. Please be considerate to those who are praying outside when leaving the masjid during prayer times.
  8. Please do not park in the businesses next door on Truman. Your car will be towed.

  11. Please respect all the volunteers and be kind and courteous to them. They are implementing policies for the ICOI Administration and your well being.

  13. Please dress appropriately when coming to ICOI.
  14. Please be considerate of the prayer space you occupy, especially when using a chair. You may be obstructing and intruding upon another person's space.
  15. Please do not bring large purses and bags with you. These occupy unnecessary space and cause obstruction.

  17. Please use the minimum amount necessary for wudu and avoid wasting water and splashing.  Remember, a Muslim leaves a place cleaner than he found it.
