Barnoldswick is a small town in North-West England with a population of approximately 10,000 people. There has been a small Muslim population present in the town since the 1960’s.
Our Muslim population in the town has expanded organically over the years as families have grown, and we are asking for your help to raise money for a dedicated building to meet the needs of our community, including:
- A place to safely run Educational and Quran classes for children and adults
- Ability to accommodate more people at peak times such as Jummah and Eid Prayers
- A place to hold events such as weddings, funerals, and other outreach events for our local community
We have identified a suitable building that is available to acquire. The building has ample space to accommodate the needs of current and future generations but will need refurbishing before it is ready for use. In total, we need to raise £500k which is split into three phases:
- Phase 1: £25,000 for the initial deposit and legal fees
- Phase 2: £180,000 to pay for the building.
- Phase 3: £295,000 to cover the cost of refurbishment.
Please donate today to this important and worthy cause that will benefit not only you, but the wider community and future generations of the Ummah to come.
This is great opportunity to invest in the hereafter, Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said:
“When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him (for the deceased).”
