Texas mosque and prayer-location snapshot, 2026 edition

Scope

A source-listed snapshot of individual Muslim prayer locations in Texas. Each row is one physical place, not one organization. This is explicitly incomplete: it is not a statewide mosque census and does not attempt one.

This edition records what was available on its checked date. It does not create a historical snapshot for an earlier year.

Methods and limits

Texas Muslim selected fields from the existing source-backed corpus, retained each record’s source and checked date, and exported the result without inferring missing values. The compilation and field arrangement are ours; source material remains governed by its original publisher’s terms.

• This is a snapshot of listed locations, not a census. Texas keeps no mosque registry, and no attempt is made here to count every prayer space in the state.
• The 25 Islamic Society of Greater Houston rows were read from the association's live listing page on September 23, 2026. That page is internally inconsistent about its own total: the introduction says 20 centers and the footer says 22, while the page itself displays 25 location entries. The 25 here is what the listing displayed on that date, derived by us. It is not an official ISGH count.
• A listing is not a visit. Nothing here establishes that a location is currently open, staffed, accessible or holding prayers on any given day.
• Opening year is empty for every row because no source read for this snapshot publishes one. Empty means unestablished, not unknown-to-exist.
• Phone numbers are deliberately omitted. Several listings publish personal mobile numbers, which do not belong in a public dataset.
• Rows are physical places. One organization may operate many of them, so this count is not a count of Muslim organizations in Texas, and certainly not of Muslim residents.
