Masjid Repairs Roadmap


Introduction

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, the Lord of all Creation. Among the blessings He has bestowed upon us is the establishment of the Salafi Centre Masjid in 2003. Alhamdulillāh, over the years, the call to Salafiyyah has grown, and our Masjid has become a thriving and busy centre.

By the permission and aid of Allah, we are able to establish prayers, host weekly lessons and classes; Qur’an, Islamic Studies, Arabic, Weekend & Online schools for children; as well as a range of extra curricular clubs for the benefit of the community; and call to the way of the Salaf (free of extremism and neglect) by way of  da’wah and online platforms – all of which are blessings from Allah that we ask Him to accept.

To continue providing these services and maintain the Masjid as a welcoming and safe place, after the aid of Allah, we rely on the generosity of our community and brothers & sisters.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim). This includes supporting its upkeep, which is an act of Sadaqah Jariyah (ongoing charity).

Recently, we identified key improvement projects to preserve and enhance the masjid. These are outlined in a clear and transparent roadmap, so you can view our ongoing & upcoming projects.

We will continue to update the roadmap regularly, in shā’ Allāh, with up-to-date information on projects, figures and progress, so you can see the impact of your generous support, in shā’ Allāh.

We welcome your support in maintaining and improving one of the Houses of Allah. We ask Allāh to accept it from us, and to place it on our scales Yawm-al-Qiyaamah.
