AL IMAN · A SADAQAH JARIYAH OPPORTUNITY

One Square Foot.One Lasting Legacy.

For over 12 years, Al Iman has rented space for prayer and community life. After prolonged zoning and permit challenges, we risk losing our current place. By Allah's grace, we have an opportunity to secure land for our growing community.

Help build one of the houses of Allah. The Prophet ﷺ taught that whoever builds a masjid for Allah, however small, Allah will build a house for them in Jannah. Claim your unique square foot for $15.13 for yourself, your parents, or someone you love.

The 297,541 squares match the land's recorded square footage. The $4.5 million goal covers the seller's asking price, excluding legal, title, and closing costs. Extra support is welcome.

Our story

A growing community in need of a permanent home.

Al Iman has rented space for over 12 years. Zoning and permit challenges now put our current location at risk. This land offers our growing community the hope of a permanent masjid, insha'Allah.

We hope to preserve this mosaic online and on site as a donor wall, inviting future generations to make du'a for those who helped.
