The Masjids of Allah shall be maintained only by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day.
إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَى الزَّكَاةَ وَلَمْ يَخْشَ إِلَّا اللَّهَ ۖ فَعَسَىٰ أُولَٰئِكَ أَن يَكُونُوا مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ﴾
Masjids are symbols of devotion and the power of community solidarity in Islam, representing more than just their physical location. The RUHAMA Foundation's Building Mosques program strives to give communities access to secure and valuable places of worship. Building and renovating mosques and other houses of worship in underprivileged communities is part of our work.
Importance of Building a Mosque
Make Strong Social bond
The masjid's function as a hub for social interaction strengthens the bonds among the Muslim community. It provides a forum for exchanging stories, encouraging one another, and commemorating happy and sad times.
Create a communal worship
Masjids are more than just places of private prayer; they are vibrant hubs for social events. Within these communal walls, Muslims gather to participate in group acts of devotion that strengthen the links of brotherhood and sisterhood and create a sense of unity.
Make unity and connection
Standing shoulder to shoulder in front of the Qiblah, Muslims have a deep sense of spiritual connectedness and unity. This alignment strengthens the common devotion that cuts over national, linguistic, and cultural divides and symbolizes the greater togetherness of the community.
