MASJID EXTENSION – OUR PRIMARY FOCUS AT PRESENT
As the community of Bradford is beginning to grow, a few members of the community suggested a Masjid extension. £35,000 was raised as this was the projected cost at the onset of the expansion. But as is experienced with most building works, projected costs always change. In our case it doubled to £70,000 due to modifications and additions which were absolutely necessary. In addition we purposely made certain changes to avoid having to spend further money in the future modifying building work. So we require £35,000 to complete the extension. We ask the Muslims to support us by way of Sadaqah, as much as you are able. On numerous occasions we have highlighted that we are striving to become self sufficient, generating money ourselves rather than rely on donations. But the project has simply not matured enough at present. All details regarding ways to donate can be found by CLICKING HERE. Although we require funds for two additional projects, we felt the need to focus on this as the Masjid needs to be completed before Ramadhaan.
Summary:
A new double the size men’s prayer, new women’s area, new wudu facilities for men and women, new carpets, heating, windows, electrics and entrances. Work started in March 2013, completion date: June 2013. Total project cost: £70,000. £35,000 raised, £35,000 still to raise. Donations required urgently to prevent work coming to a halt.
