"We Rush to Help" And now we need the help of Allah and the Ummah to subsist through this difficult time.


The IOCC is a brand new Islamic Organization and masjid focusing on a new approach to providing essential services to the Muslim community in the State of Colorado. 

We were, and in sha Allah still are, growing as a community and an organization. We had recently implimented jummuah services in a second location along with our Friday feeding programs, were partnering with local schools, politicians, and MSA for outreach as well as working to open a library, computer lab, and food and clothing pantry when the world began to be tested through the 2019 Novel Corona Virus. 

MashaAllah this situation has forced us as an organization and community to refocus our efforts and clarify our intentions. 

Many projects which were our primary focus have been suspendedfocus indefinitely, but we feel it is necessary to continue providing what services are safe and appropriate, as well as seeking to expand into directions we hadn't yet anticipated. Alternatives such as live streaming lessons and counseling sessions, home delivery for food, clothing, aand other essentials to the community, and online tours and qq&a sessions for non Muslims are all very high on our new list of redirected priorities. We currently lack much of the infrastructure and resources needed for these new agendas.

in sha Allah we will all learn to adapt and redirect in these times in sha Allah. 

We will also continue maintaining the masjid facility despite its very restricted usability at this point, and utilize this time to undergo continued renovation and expansion forseeing a day when, in sha Allah, our other programs may resume. 

For all of these things we need the assistance of Allah, and of the Ummah. 

Please help us to continue as an organization, and to come out the other side better for this in sha Allah.

YouTube Series

Alhamdulillah we are slowly settleing in at home and working to adjust to being a remote/virtual organization. 
We have a YouTube channel with playlists for sister, children, and the ummah in general.

We are working on dawah videos, educational, family advice, and so much more. 
Please think of our organization as a simple and in sha Allah beneficial way to make an investment with Allah that you will find heavy on your scales on the Last Day!

Going Digital


Our YoutubeYouTube Channel is up and going, with many programs to come in sha Allah. 

We face more unanticipated new expenses every day.  The change in direction left us with alot of capitol tied up in projects that have become essentially defunctdefunct (commercial quality bookshelves for the library, Desktop computers for our online learning and training center, Food service equipment, etc Alhamdulillah)

Alhamdulillah we are surviving through Allah's Mercy, and we want to do more for you, the community. 

This is a time of loneliness and struggle for many, and we want to be there, providing services and support. 

We need microphones, cameras, and lighting. We need technical support, and an amped up websight.

We need to keep the resources we have built, such as the musullah and the North branch prayer space, fundedfunded, despite their current disuse.

We need cleaning and safety supplies to continue to provide the bare minimum services that safety and law allow in the masjid facility.

 Obviously all those things take money!

May Allah guide us all to His Straight Path  and may He ease our fears in this troubled time and bring our hearts together so we emerge better for it. 

Please give whatever you can and share the campaign, if 1000 people give just 10 dollars, we will reach our goal to subsist through these difficult times in sha Allah! 

Do not feel that your small contribution is meaningless.

 Loan Allah a beautiful loan and He will surely multiply it!

His work must continue

It is difficult to express how we feel seeing one of Allahs houses sstanding still and empty...

Much work has been done: walls torn down, carpet laid, classes and services and counceling commenced, and much still remains. 

We have not stopped planning, while remembering that Allah is the Best of Planners, and we pray for His assistance and yours to aid us in transitioning through these troubled times and building up programs to continue our service to the community in the interim. 

The work of this Ummah should stop for nothing in sha Allah.
