"Whoever builds a Masjid for the sake of Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise"
Agreed upon Hadith

"When a person dies, his good deeds cease except for three: 1 - Deeds of continuous Sadaqa (Sadaqa Jariyah e.g. orphan home, a well for giving water to drink, building a mosque) 2- Ilm Naafiya (beneficial knowledge) , 3- Al walad as-Saalih (a righteous son or daughter who supplicates to Allah (SWT) on his behalf)"
Narrated by Muslim

"The likeness of those who spend for Allah's sake is as the likeness of a grain of corn, it grows seven ears every single ear has a hundred grains, and Allah multiplies (increases the reward of) for whom He wills, and Allah is sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower)." (Qur'an, 2:261)

Adjacent Plot Purchased

The recently purhcased adjacent property has been cleared, cleaned and is ready for outdoor activities and parking. First, a company was contracted to remove the cyclone fence that divided the properties. Next, we rented a Bobcat and went through two dumpsters clearing logs, branches, brush, concrete, dirt, garbage and other debris. [click here to view more images]

Our current facility is an old single-family home that is no longer able to support our operations. Insha 'Allah, we are setting out to build a new masjid on the same property by purchasing the vacant lot next to ours and constructing a new building with proper facilities like parking, wudu stations, rooms for children, classrooms and a library. The architect has developed two plans: a one story (Scheme A) and two story (Scheme B) configuration -- the two story being the best (but costing more). We need your financial support -- any amount you can give will be greatly appreciated. Please tell your friends and family and get the word out that they have an opportunity to build a masjid that calls for the message of Muhammad -- at-Tawheed.

        

Preliminary site/floor plans have been made available by the architect and can be downloaded in PDF format here:

The project is divided into three (3) phases:

  1. Purchase adjacent lot: approximately $60k. Lot is up for sale and needs to be purchased quickly before someone else purchases it. COMPLETED
  2. New building construction: one-story: approximately $600k; two-story: approximately $1m.
  3. Old building demolition: approximately $10k.
