About NIC
Norrbotten’s Islamic Center (NIC) was founded in Lulea, Sweden, in 2006 by three volunteers, Mohamed Gabra, Baby Thein, and Kaber Marefat. It is a non-profit charity founded as an Islamic organization with no political affiliation.
Under the center’s internal rules, the members work together to represent their work to authorities, organizations, and institutions both inside and outside of Sweden. This is done through the center’s organizational and administrative structure.
