About us
Where you'll findyour people in Oslo.
MSS started in 1995, when a few students wanted somewhere on campus to pray and meet. Thirty years later we are Scandinavia's largest Muslim student society, still at the University of Oslo.
We run tajweed classes and our own library, Al-Maktabah, where any student can borrow for free. Through the year there is the Scandinavian Quran Competition, Ramadan iftars, socials, cabin trips, and friends you keep after you graduate.
First week in Oslo or final year, you are welcome.
وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ
«And cooperate in righteousness and piety.»
An open letter
A letter from us to you.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته،
Stepping onto campus for the first time can feel overwhelming. So many new faces, so many new impressions.
It's exciting and a little daunting all at once, especially as a young Muslim who doesn't always follow the status quo.
That's why we're here. Muslimsk Studentsamfunn (MSS) was made to be a place of connection and community for Muslim students in Oslo.
We work alongside the university, local communities, and mosques so you always have somewhere to feel safe, at home, and fully yourself — no compromise. We'd love to tell you more in person.
Come find us at our events, at the Jumu'ah prayers we host, in the prayer room, or just chilling by the fountain.
And look forward to Ramadan. It might not beat your mum's cooking or family iftars, but our community iftars, with lectures, activities, and amazing food, are a pretty good runner-up.
Our door is always open, and we can't wait to meet you, in shaa' Allah.
What we do
Where to start.
Most people come for the company first: cabin trips, iftars, football, a room where you are not the only Muslim. The rest follows from there.

The board · Since 1995
We came to this university and were met with the best community we could have asked for. All we are doing now is passing that welcome on to the students arriving after us.
