With your generosity, we will be able to relocate bathrooms out of the musullah and expand the space to start jummah prayers!


We are a group of Muslim families who live in and around Ypsilanti, Michigan who set out to establish a small community for worship. By the grace of God, we were able to purchase a small building and have steadily grown a community who prays and hosts different programs there since last Ramadan. 

We are in great need of moving the bathroom away from the musallah (carpeted prayer area). 

  • PROBLEM: The bathroom is in the middle of the musallah
    • Our current bathroom is used by both men and women.
    • We need a second bathroom to accommodate more people.
    • You need to cross in front of the women's section to get to the bathroom, which isn't appropriate when sisters are praying.

 

  • OBJECTIVE: Expand the musullah by demolishing the bathroom and storage room in this corner to properly accommodate people for jummuah prayer:
    • We will build 2 new bathrooms for women & men near the entrance.

The new bathrooms will be built here.

Your help would be so beneficial as we hope to grow as a loving and beautiful space for all believers, adults and children. We are a child-friendly, family-friendly, wheelchair accessible space alhamdulilah. Your support would go directly to the removal and remediation of the current bathroom and the building of two (2) new gender segregated bathrooms. 

 

“In it (mosque) are men who love to clean and to purify themselves. And Allah loves those who make themselves clean and pure.”

(Quran 9:108)

 

Our space is modeled after the Zawiyah Foundation in Vancouver B.C which was established by Imam Fode Drame. The central goal and intention of The Zawiyah is the positive development of human character, using the manners and traits of our Messenger, Muhammad, alayhi salaam, as a guide through the lens of the Qur’an and Sunnah. It is under his guidance that we have been slowly growing as a community that hopes to always have the Qur'an at the center of our community life and space. 

We truly hope you can give towards this goal. Remember that your sadaqa never diminishes your wealth and in fact it only increases you in this life and the next. We pray that this space is a means for all of us to attain God's pleasure and His paradise. 

Total Project Cost (approximately): $40,000+

  • $20,000
    • Old bathroom & office demolition
