Story

INTRODUCTION

In July 2017, I undertook the biggest challenge of my live: I decided to cycle 5,000 km
from London to Makkah and perform Hajj,
and in the process, raise funds for children
living on the streets of Bangladesh &
Pakistan. My love for the land of the Prophet (SAW)
is unmatched. Walking and performing
the rituals of Hajj gave me a tranquil and
spiritual feeling I had never felt before,
or since.                                                                                                           
Reflecting on the Prophet’s (SAW) journey

of the Hijrah, I came up with the idea to

walk in his footsteps. The challenge would

not only be spiritual but one that would

encourage Muslims to lead a healthy

lifestyle and hopefully convey to the world

Islam’s universal message of peace.                                                                                   

Cause;  MASJID IN AFRICA
A Masjid is the heart of any Muslim community. It allows

people to gather for prayer and come together in

celebration or mourning.

It is a centre of learning for people of all ages. In deprived

communities with very little resources, these communal

centres are often non-existent or built from flimsy,

temporary materials that offer little protection from the

scorching sun or pouring rain.

We construct Masjids and Madrassahs to allow Muslims

to worship and flourish as well as to promote Islamic

education amongst newer generations.

We have so far constructed 72 Masjids in Pakistan,

Somalia, Kenya, Malawi and Gambia. Last year alone, we

built 3 Masjids and 4 Madrassahs in Gambia, 3 Masjids and

4 Madrassahs in Kenya and 19 Madrassahs in Somalia.
