"Whoever builds a Masjid for the sake of Allah, like a sparrows nest or even smaller, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise." - Ibn Majah (738)
In March 2019, we were able to purchase and refurbish this Masjid for a total cost of £600,000 with the help of a Qarde Hasana (loan). Alhamdulillah, as restrictions related to COVID-19 have been lifted, we have been able to gradually increase the number of activities at the centre. Currently, we offer the following services and have plans to expand even further:
Five daily prayers
Children's Maktab (Evening and Weekends)
Weekly Brothers Circle
Weekly Youth Circle
Weekly Sisters Circle
Monthly Litter pick
Partnership with Safer Neighbourhood Team
Community Road watch
Coffee Mornings
Food Club (coming soon to help those financially struggling)
Thanks to Allah's grace and your ongoing support, we have successfully been able to repay a significant amount of our Qarde Hasana loan, leaving us with an outstanding amount of £214,700. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to donate towards the house of Allah, and we pray that Allah rewards you in many folds in return.
This project is proudly brought to you by Dawatul Islam UK and Eire, an organization that has been serving the community since 1978.
