We are a rapidly growing Muslim community consisting of around 350-400 families. Alhamdulillah, there are quite a few Masaajid in the area, however, they are newly established and financially unable to support educational programs. In order to fulfill the Islamic educational need of the Muslim children, we have established an Islamic School and Masjid in May of 2016. However, we have outgrown our existing space due to the increase in the Muslim population of our region and have far exceeded our current capacity of 60-70 students and around 150 worshippers for Jum-ah.

We would like to purchase a building that is currently a church, with plans to turn it into an Islamic school, Masjid, and a dawah facility for non-Muslims as well as an educational center for new Muslims. To our best assessment, this building can accommodate up to 200 students and 500 worshippers, and can also be used for occasional community programs. While we are actively fundraising in nearby cities, we also need your generous support to make our efforts go even further.

First, we need to purchase the building located at 112-41 Guy R Brewer Blvd, Jamaica, NY 11433, which is listed at 2 million USD, but can be negotiated, to $ 1.8 million USD. We also need to purchase an adjacent vacant land that can be used to build residential spaces that will be a financial resource for the school; the cost of the land and construction of this will be $ 450,000-500,000 USD. In total, there is a need of about 2.3 million USD for the full project.
