Story

The 140-year old historic church is the ideal premises for a college (including a place of worship) as the property is situated in 0.22 acres of land in the heart of Cambridge with the permissions already in place.

Your donation to the College will allow us to acquire this much needed building to fulfil our vision and to change the lives of those who study and work here and of those who benefit from the fruits of the College. Furthermore it will be sadaqah jaariyah, with a reward that will continue for generations to come.

'Who is it that would lend Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned' (Q 2:245)

Our immediate requirement is to clear the debts in the purchase of the building and start renovations.

We are appealing for generous donations especially from you to this noble and important cause. Without your support we will not be able to start our programmes in September
