Our Mission and History
It is narrated that Abdullah ibn Mas’ud said: “Be with the jama’ah for Allah’s hand is with the jama’ah.” Explaining this term, he also said: “The jama’ah is what adheres to the truth, even if you are alone.” Whenever the word jama’ah is mentioned, it implies following The Qur’an and Sunnah even if the number of those who adhere to it is small, and the number of those who do not is greater.
With this understanding of the jama’ah, families from our community started gathering in 2006. As the years passed, the number of interested families increased and implied the need for purchasing a property for community and religious use. Our activities included:
- Teaching Arabic alphabet
- Reading of The Qur’an regularly
- Lectures
- Family gatherings
- Organizing of Educational Islamic Conventions
- Organizing of sporting activities
Our gatherings taught us to value each other and helped us to appreciate each brother and sister as part of one loving and caring community. We firmly believe that the education of a believer can only be fulfilled with a proper family upbringing along with support and nourishment of a dedicated community. This website represents another effort that we have put forth in implementing this belief, as well as hope that we will get a chance to share this belief with others. We ask Allah Subhanehu we Te’ala to help us in this cause and to accept it from us on the scale of our good deeds.
