The masjid plays the greatest role in the well-being of the Ummah.

It is the main link between the masses and their Lord, strengthening the believers faith and unity.

A thriving masjid remains a sign of Islam’s vitality. For this reason, the masjid remains a target for Islam’s enemies, who in the past hundred years have closed countless masjids across the Ummah, razed them to the ground or changed them for other uses.

Masjid-Construction

Building and preserving the masjid remains the Prophetic tradition of every Muslim community, and so Ummah Welfare Trust works hard therefore to construct or renovate as many as it can.

‘Whosoever builds a house (masjid) for the pleasure of Allah, whether it be small or large, Allah builds for him a house in Paradise.’
[Tirmidhi]

Alhamdulillah, the charity builds and renovates masjids in remote communities across South Asia, Africa, the Balkans and the Middle East. Each new masjid also runs a maktab, offering a place where poor young children can learn Islam as it has been traditionally taught.
