Our Story
Hadinkai grew from conversations among members of Edmonton’s Ghanaian Muslim community who wanted to strengthen unity, mutual assistance, Islamic identity and the connection between generations. The name Hadinkai expresses the idea of Unity of Purpose.
Community members came together to celebrate faith, preserve heritage and support one another during important life events and difficult times. In 2026, the Society strengthened its governance and expanded its community activities, including a potluck and Ramadan reminder, Eid gathering and its first General Assembly.
Our Vision
To build a united, supportive, culturally grounded, and spiritually guided Ghanaian Muslim community.
Our Mission
To promote Islamic values, community unity, cultural identity, social welfare, humanitarian support, youth development, and mutual assistance among members.
What Guides Us

Leadership and Governance
Hadinkai’s General Assembly adopted a revised Constitution on September 26, 2026. Its governance framework includes an Executive Committee, spiritual and cultural leadership, advisory roles and committees. It also recognizes the roles of Magajia and Women’s Coordinator.
