The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, ‘Whoever constructs a masjid for Allah, Allah will construct a house for him in Paradise’. (Bukhari)

A masjid is at the heart of any local Muslim community. It provides a place for its worshippers to pray and contemplate as well as being a hub for educational programmes and other everyday services. The role of the masjid is to help people learn more about Islam and to nurture their moral and spiritual development.

By building a masjid you will not only earn the reward of providing a community with a house of Allah, but your Sadaqah Jariyah will continue giving benefit for generations to come in sha' Allah.

You can customise the facilities of your mosque according to your budget, even after the project is completed. For example, you can add: prayer mats, lighting, bookshelves, air conditioning, or a dedicated women’s section.

We will work with you to build your masjid to your specification, whilst keeping the needs of the community you will be supporting in mind. For example, a water well will add benefit by providing clean water for drinking and wudu.

For years, 500 families in a rural village in Mali were living without a masjid. Every Friday, those who were strong enough would walk to a masjid two kilometres away on narrow, rocky paths to attend the Jumu’ah prayer.ÌýOn other days of the week, they would pray out in the open, whether it was in the 45 degree heat of summer or the peak of the rainy season.

Alhamdulillah, the du’as of these families were answered when a generous donor approached the Major Giving team to donate a masjid to their village, transforming their lives.ÌýEvery day, they flock to their new masjid;Ìýit is the heart of the community, a place where they can contemplate, worship, learn and develop spiritually.

The Prophet (saw) said, 'It is the duty of a Muslim who has anything to bequest not to let two nights pass without writing a will about it'. [Bukhari]
