The Messenger of Allah said, “Whoever builds a mosque for Allah’s sake, as a sparrow or even smaller, Allah will build a house in Paradise for him.” (Ibn Majah) A mosque is at the heart of any local Muslim community.
It provides space for their worshipers to pray and consider, as well as being a hub for educational programs and other daily services. The Masjid’s role is to help people learn more about Islam and to nurture their moral and spiritual development.
