The Islamic Community Center of Anchorage Alaska (ICCAA) is an Islamic center and mosque in Anchorage, Alaska. According to its site, the congregation includes Muslims from Europe, Asia, and Africa, as well as converted native Alaskans. The mosque is intended to serve Anchorage's approximately 3,000 diverse Muslims in a 15,000-square-foot-facility (1,400 m²).^[1][2][3]

The organization is constructing Alaska's first mosque, which will be the third northernmost mosque in North America. It is located at Spring Street and E. 80th Avenue in Anchorage, Alaska.^{[citation needed]}

Ground was broken in October 2010 for the construction of the mosque, school, and Islamic center.^[4]
