Masjid Building (Cost 55,000$)
Masjid is acenter of Muslim community where people can congregate for their five daily prayers and Friday congregation sermons. A mosque serves as a place where Muslims can come together not only for prayers, but for information, education and meetings.
We build community mosques in remote villages to aid development. It’s where children learn religious manners and to read the Holy Qur’an. In mosques villagers are united as a community to practice and better understand their faith, which is vital to development.
It is an excellent form of Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity) as the donor can expect to receive rewards as long as people worship there. Help build a mosque and you would receive sadaqah jariyah as duas made there are attributed to those who supported the construction of the masjid. Mosques are Centre of Learning for any community. It was narrated from Jabir bin 'Abdullah that: The Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, like a sparrow's nest for Allah or even smaller, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise." (Hadis - Sunan Ibn Majah, 738)
إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللّهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ وَأَقَامَ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتَى الزَّكَاةَ وَلَمْ يَخْشَ إِلاَّ اللّهَ فَعَسَى أُوْلَئِكَ أَن يَكُونُواْ مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ
[The mosques of Allah are only to be maintained by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day and establish prayer and give zakah and do not fear except Allah, for it is expected that those will be of the [rightly] guided.] (Quran - Tawbah 18)
