Jame Abu Bakr Siddique.
We make Dua that Allah (SWT) guide all Muslims to be part of this noble project
and earn ever lasting multiple rewards from Allah (SWT) in this world and
hereafter.
The Scarborough Muslim Association is a Non-profit, registered charity located
in the centre of Scarborough (East Toronto) where over 140,000 Muslims have
settled and the Muslim population is growing rapidly. It provides the following
services to Muslims since 1984.
- Daily five times prayer Fridays, Eidain, Taraveeh congregational prayers. Over
2000 Muslims attend our congregational prayers.
- Islamic School teaching Muslim children Quran’ic recitation, Hifzul Qur’an,
Aahadith and moral Islamic values.
- Family and youth counselling.
- Dawah programs.
- Marriage and funeral services.
All of the above programs and services are conducted at the existing building
which was purchased in 1992 with two acres of land. Since then, the number of
Musallis has more than quadrupled and the current prayer halls are inadequate to
accommodate them. Prayers often have to be done in two shifts, one after the
other. Sometimes people have to pray outside in the parking lot, including
during the winter months. The Muslim population in the area is growing very
rapidly increasing the demands for the community services.
In order to meet the growing needs of the Muslim community, the management has
planned to demolish the existing old and small building and construct a new
mosque and school building with bigger facilities to provide better services to
Muslims as following:
- A bigger prayer facility to accommodate over 3,000 Musallis. Separate prayer
hall for sisters
- A full time Islamic School for academic and religious teaching,
- Full funereal and burial services
- A large Islamic library
- Multi purpose hall for community services
- Youth development programs throughout the year
The building permit has been received from the City of Toronto. The old building
has been demolished and construction of new masjid is in progress. We need to
raise four million dollars to complete the project. We appeal to all Muslims
brothers and sisters to donate generously to complete the house of Allah.
"Whomsoever builds a house of Allah in this world; Allah will build a house for
him in Jannah.”
