My Story
Prophet Muhammad (saw) told us that Allah (SWT) says that if someone builds a masjid in order to reap His reward, Allah (SWT) will build them a similar house in paradise. The beloved Prophet (saw) spoke of the virtues of building masjid and actively participated in the construction of Masjid-e- Haraam, Masjid-e- Quba and Masjid-e-Nabawi.
Many Muslim communities across Asia and Africa don?t have the option to practice their faith in a mosque because of overcrowding, poor construction or the sheer length of the journey they would need to make in order to step foot in a blessed masjid. Impoverished communities are unable to find the financial resources to build a long-lasting structure where everybody can flourish in their faith.
In deprived communities, these communal centres, due to their very limited resources are often non-existent or built from a temporary structure with little protection from the scorching sun.
When you make a donation for the masjid, we are able to construct Masajid to allow Muslims to worship and flourish as well as to promote education and progress. Our masjids are important places within the communities we serve, and provide a sense of Islamic identity and ensures the continuity of faith and good practice.
Your donation for masjid will help us to build permanent structures the entire community can use. Just £100 provides a prayer area for a Masjid, whilst £8,500 can help us to build a small Masjid in Asia (£10,000 in Africa) whilst £15,000 will ensure we can build a large place of worship.
?Whoever builds a mosque, desiring thereby Allah?s pleasure, Allah builds for him the like of it in paradise.? [Sahih Bukhari]
