Dear Brothers and Sisters, 14 Years ago a masjid was established in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston by a few Somali brothers and sisters who sought to create a place to worship Allah (SWT) and raise a community filled with educated children and families. They rented a small house and immediately began teaching Quran and the fundamentals of Islamic education to all ages, from the very young to the very old. Throughout the 14 years this institution has been running, more than two dozen individuals including men, women, youth and elderly have completed and memorized the entire 30 Juz of the book of Allah (SWT). Despite the lack of space, every weekend this tiny building holds hundreds of students of all ages for their year long intensive Quran and Islamic courses. The building they have been renting for 14 years, the one they have called home for so long, is up for sale and they need to find a new home as soon as possible. They have found an active church on 50 Cedar Street, Roxbury, MA that contains 18000 square feet of land, including a parking lot that can hold 50-65 cars. Students parents and teachers have been canvassing throughout Massachusetts this week fundraising. The money raised through this campaign will go towards buying and renovating the property. Humans of Somalia will make some donation, we encourage all our followers to do the same because The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: “Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, like a sparrow’s nest or even smaller, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”.
