Build Masjids, Build Communities
The Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whosoever builds a house (masjid) for the pleasure of Allah, whether it be small or large, Allaah builds for him a house in Paradise.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
The masjid is the heart of the community and the foremost action that was conducted by the Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) upon entering Madinah was to establish a masjid. In light of this noble way, Invitation To Islam aims to build a masjid in a village where a high proportion of the villagers have accepted Islam, so that it can be a focal point for the community as a place of worship. Through the masjid we are also able to help the villagers to practice Islam.
