There are currently one million Muslims living in Canada with the majority being
immigrants with diverse ethnic and linguistic traditions. Although more Canadian Muslims are
entering older age, there is still limited research evidence and policy focused on older Muslims’
lived experiences and needs in Canada. This Community-Based Participatory Study serves to
describe the experiences of Muslim seniors and community stakeholders, with regards to healthy
aging and related needs in Edmonton, Alberta. Sixty-four Canadian Muslims from multiple
ethno-cultural communities in Edmonton participated in the study. Data collection occurred over
a period of one year (2017-2018), using a combination of individual interviews and focus group
discussions. A thematic data analysis approach was used to identify final study findings.
