Alhamdulilah we have successfully submitted our building permit to the City of Burlington. This is a huge milestone, this means that all of our drawings are complete and we expect to mobilize for construction this summer.
As salamalikum brothers and Sisters,
This Ramadan we pray that you will make the Rahmah Islamic Centre (RIC) amongst the many worthy causes you will support during the blessed holy month.
Alhamdulilah, we are planning to start construction this summer inshAllah and our goal is to continue construction until the project is complete. That being said, we need your support to help keep the momentum for this cause going. We have $5.5 million in donations and pledges and our goal this Ramadan is to reach $6.5 million. Alhamdulilah, Islamic Relief Canada has generously offered to match donations up to $100,000 which means for every $2 you donate, Islamic Relief will match $1.
This is a golden opportunity to invest in your local community, double your impact, gain immense reward from Allah and secure a house for yourself in the afterlife. Our beloved Prophet (saw) said:
“Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”
Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity during Ramadan. This project is considered sadaqa jaariyah which means the reward for your charity will benefit you even after your death.
We pray Allah reward you and your family for your generosity and for Allah to accept your good deeds this month. Please remember RIC in your duas.
