This campaign will collect all funds raised by May 19, 2023 at 11:45 PM EDT
Why we need the funds: Countless Masjids in Africa are standing in ruin and struggling to cater to the needs of the communities in which they are situated in and the demand is so high! Masjids play a pivotal role within Muslim communities, but without the means to carry out the simplest of repairs and refurbishments they turn into a state of disrepair.
Overcrowding is another issue, which requires block paving outside to accommodate the extra worshippers, especially on Friday. The demand in the local community is so high that incomplete Masjids, without doors or windows, are being used as places for prayer and education.
The Mosques are never going to be large enough to accommodate the worshipers, Ma'sha Allah, especially on Fridays. The Solution? TRANSFORM THE OUTSIDE SPACE!
The funds would go towards repairing existing masjids. All too often, we get so caught up with the idea of building new Masjids from scratch and we leave the existing ones to fall apart. Repairs would include, replacing broken tiles, updating the toilets and wudhu area or simply painting and decorating the interiors. For many disadvantaged communities within Africa, Masjids have dilapidated over time, and the simplest of repair work and refurbishments, such as is not feasible due to the lack of funds.
The Balad Foundation is a Charity where 100% of your donation received goes to the charitable projects. Our focus is community empowerment and sustainable development.
This project was started by the Islamic Centre Edgware (ICE) in Ramadan 2019. For over 20 years, ICE has worked tirelessly alongside the Muslim community in Edgware to establish a Masjid and Community Centre.
We value the presence of Masjids within local communities, and so our passion and dedication of meeting the needs of Muslims have now led us to extend our efforts internationally.
We set up this project to support our brothers and sisters across the globe in restoring their local Masjids and establishing them as community sanctuaries.
I read a story by Ajmal Masroor on Facebook titled Return on Investment which has inspired me to continue this beautiful project and invite you to join us Insha’Allah.
"Every month without fail, we spend on our worldly life for food, rent, mortgage, council tax, bills, insurance, transport etc etc etc. Thousands of pounds, but how much do we spend regularly in charity for our Hereafter?"
If the answer is not enough, join us on this project Insha’Allah. We are looking to raise just £10,000 to continue this project in 2023/2024. Allah loves the small deeds that are done consistently.
ZAKAT Food Parcel
This year we will be distributing Food Parcels to the Poor and Needy in both Egypt and Ramadan In'sha Allah. Each Parcel will feed a family for a week in Ramadan. Four Food Parcels for a month In'sha Allah. Get the Blessings of feeding the poor in this Blessed Month.
