Empowering Our Mosques, Empowering Our Community
Help establish a Masjid in the heart of Stittsville
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Whoever builds a Masjid for (the sake of) Allah, then Allah will build a similar house for him in Paradise.”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 2, Hadith 170
The Stittsville Muslim Association needs your support this Ramadan 2024 to raise funds towards the future purchase of land or land plus building to establish the first mosque & Muslim Community Centre in Stittsville. We are currently renting two small units and have outgrown our current space.
About
The Stittsville Muslim Association (SMA) was formed in 2019 to create a strong Muslim community and provide a much-needed prayer space for the growing Muslim population of Stittsville. SMA, the first mosque in Stittsville, is a registered charity managed and maintained by dedicated volunteers. SMA helps create a sense of community and belonging for Muslims across Stittsville (and the greater Ottawa area).
SMA strongly believes in community engagement as Muslims have been an integral part of the wider Canadian society since 1854 when the first Muslims migrated to Ontario. SMA is committed to civic and civil engagement with communities of other faiths and society at large. With the help of Allah SWT, we envision a community center which attracts and empowers youth, supports families, cares for elders, and enables those who want to make a positive contribution to the community. Ameen.
Islamic Relief works with communities to strengthen their resilience to calamities, and we provide vital emergency aid when disasters occur.
We help the impoverished access basic services, including education, water and sanitation, as well as healthcare. We provide lasting routes out of poverty through our sustainable development schemes. Our integrated approach to progress is transforming communities worldwide.
We tackle the root causes of poverty and make sure that the world’s most vulnerable people have real influence in both our programs and advocacy.
Our key values, of compassion, justice, custodianship, sincerity and excellence – a critical part of our Islamic faith - inspire us each and every day to create positive change and remember the sanctity of life.
In line with Islamic teachings on the value of every human life, we provide assistance to whoever needs it most, regardless of race, religion or gender. We work to transform and save lives of people in crisis both Canada and across the world.
Let us share the khair from the blessings Allah has bestowed upon us.
