Why Build a Masjid?
A Masjid can be built for just £5,000, providing room for around 100 worshippers, a place for congregational prayer, and a means of educating children and future generations about the words, wisdom, and guidance of the Qu’ran. A new Masjid is a gift for them, their community, and for the glory of Allah (SWT). They will provide a place for its worshippers to pray and contemplate as well as a place for educational programmes and other everyday services. Masjids are a symbol of hope and the heart of any community.
A one-off donation, or better, a Sadaqah Jariyah, will help build the fund to build a Masjid. The ultimate rewarding project, with rewards in the hereafter, for all who make it possible. The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) said, “Whoever builds a mosque, desiring thereby Allah’s pleasure, Allah builds for him the like of it in paradise.” [Bukhari]
Sahih Muslim
When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (continuing charity), knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him.

Masjids are thin on the ground in rural Uganda, amongst other places in Africa. Worshippers often have to walk long distances in all weathers simply to congregate in prayer – this daily challenge, on top of the constant demand to find work, food, and water for their families.
But, more than simply a place to pray, a Masjid, by its nature, brings people together to create the heart of a community. And you can help. Your donations provide the means to build a mosque that will transform the lives of people in such communities. For them, less time to walk for worship means more time for prayer.
