Help us build the 1st accessible Islamic center - that serves local Muslims with disabilities & refugees with disabilities from Gaza & other war torn countries


Rebuilding for Growth: The Muneeba Center – A Haven for All

Imagine an Islamic center that breaks barriers and opens doors for all.

A space run for and by people with disabilities, where inclusion isn’t just an ideal but a lived reality.

Now, imagine that same center also becoming a lifeline for Muslims with disabilities displaced by war, including those fleeing the horrors of Gaza, Sudan and other war torn countries. These brothers and sisters have lost everything—homes, families, and access to essential services. Many of them live with physical and emotional trauma, yet they have nowhere to turn for the specialized care they need.

In 2015, we launched the Muneeba Center to create a welcoming, inclusive space for Muslims with disabilities. Alhamdulillah, the demand has exceeded our capacity.

📌 Today, we’ve outgrown the center.
📌 More people than ever need our services.
📌 Our waiting list is growing, and we cannot meet the demand without expansion.

This isn’t just about building a bigger space—it’s about ensuring that no one is turned away from the services they need.

This is the mission of the Muneeba Center.

With your help, we will build the first fully accessible Islamic center in Canada—one that serves both local Muslims with disabilities and refugees arriving with urgent needs, many with disabilities caused by war.

 

The Vision: Toward an Inclusive Ummah

We are working to:


Rebuild the Muneeba Center in Mississauga, making it a model for accessibility and inclusion.
Establish the Scarborough Home/Center to extend our services to the east-end community, that includes residential services
Provide critical support for Muslims with disabilities arriving from war zones, including:

  • Information and referral services that are language and culturally appropriate.
  • Mobility aids and accessibility resources
  • Life skills and peer support
  • Islamic education tailored for people with disabilities
  • A welcoming community that sees their worth and dignity

 

This isn’t just about buildings. It’s about belonging, about ensuring that no one is left behind.

Meet Our Leaders

At the heart of this initiative are two remarkable individuals who show what’s possible when we build for inclusion:

 

  

Together, they are proof that disability is not a limitation—it’s an opportunity to reimagine our communities.

 

 

Why We Need Your Support

Building a fully accessible Islamic center while also supporting Muslims with disabilities displaced by war is a monumental task. This requires specialized facilities, services, and programs, including:

  • Physical accessibility: Ramps, elevators, Braille Quran resources, and adaptive technology.
  • Community engagement: Programs that connect people with and without disabilities, fostering an inclusive Ummah.
  • Residential and Respite Care: Ensure that aging parents get a reprieve from caregiving duties and that their loved one is taken care of when they are gone
  • Sadaqa Jareeyah Project. (Ongoing blessings after you are gone)

 

We know running two separate campaigns can create confusion, so we are uniting our efforts into one powerful initiative—one that transforms lives both locally and globally. You will also be supporting a  May Allah accept it from us. Ameen.

“Nothing About Us Without Us”

The Muneeba Center isn’t just a charity—it’s a movement. We are not just serving people with disabilities; we are empowering them to lead.

By supporting this campaign, you are:
✅ Ensuring an accessible future for Muslims with disabilities.
✅ Providing a safe, welcoming space for refugees fleeing war and hardship.
Building an Ummah where every Muslim—regardless of ability or circumstance—has a place.
