Orlando East Masjid Project
The Jamiatul Ulama is appealing to all Muslims to contribute towards the construction of an Islamic centre in Soweto.
The project is the Jamiatul Ulama’s collaborative initiative with Ikhwana Islamiya in Soweto where construction of the purpose-built structure is nearing completion.
The project, which is under Siddiqi Trust shall comprise of a masjid, an imam’s house as well as madrasah classrooms in Orlando East.
Donate generously towards this project. A Prophetic tradition according to Bukhari and Muslim goes: “Whosoever builds for Allah a masjid, Allah will reward him similar to it in paradise.”
In another narration according to Imam Ahmad, “Whosoever shares in building a masjid for Allah, even if it is as small as a bird’s nest, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”
This is one opportunity for earning thawâb jâriya and a special statement of support for the growing Muslim community in Soweto.
