REQUISITION LETTER FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE JUMA MASJID

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam – AssalamuAlaikkum

‘All praise is for Allah. We praise Him and seek His help and His forgiveness and we believe in Him and rely on Him. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of ourselves and the vices of our deeds. There is no one to misguide whom Allah guides and there is no one to guide whom Allah lets go astray’
A recent census report showed that over 1000 Muslims live in Medavilagom, a small village under the postage of Kollemcode in Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu. The people who live here were spoken by Malayalam and Tamil. However, there is a Mosque for us which isre-constructed under estimation of 25 lakhs.This Masjid, Insha Allah will be having separate place for women to pray, Dhawa centre and Islamic/Arabic coaching classes for then children. Unfortunately, the construction was stopped due to financial reason.
Despite our maximum efforts over the past couple of years to collect fund for a future mosque we have only been able to collect 15 lakhs so far. The money is collected weekly at SalatulJum’a gatherings. At the rate with which we have been able to collect funds, it will take us a very long (a good few years) before which we can possibly collect enough money to have our own mosque or even longer if property prices keep going up.
Every Muslim is aware of the position of a mosque in Islamic Society. When the prophet Rasoolullah(S.A.W) arrived in Madinah, the first act he performed was the building of a mosque. This indicates the importance of a mosque in Islam. All acts of worship (ibadah) in Islam are for the purification of the soul, refinement of morals, and strengthening the ties of mutual cooperation among the Muslims. The congregational prayers and the Friday and Eid prayers are strong examples of the nature of the Muslim community and in the unity of their opinions, goals and cooperation in achieving righteousness and in fearing Allah.

We, the Muslims of Medavilagom turn to you, to help us in building our own mosque in Medavilagom, a mosque which will: Be the symbol of the Islamic faith in Medavilagom. Act as a religious centre allowing the possibility of congregational prayer and providing an environment for spiritual purification and inner strength. Serves as a centre for Islamic educational activities.
Play a central role in the cultural and social life of Muslims of Medavilagom. We believe it is truly amazing how little it can collectively cost to provide a community with a much needed place of worship, and that the opportunity to help provide this is a real blessing from Allah سبحانه وتعال. Help us establish an Islamic educational centre for ourselves, our children and future Muslims of Medavilagom.
Now, our proposed depends, upon private donations for all its operation. Once again we are pleased you to DONATE GENEROUSLY TOWARDS THE HOUSE OF ALLAH سبحانه وتعال

'The donor will reap the benefits of their contribution for as long as the mosque exists, may it stand and benefit the local community until the Day of Judgement Inshaallah’

PLEASE FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY MUSLIM BROTHERS & SISTERS AS POSSIBLE
May Allah سبحانه وتعال reward you and your family immensely for your contribution!

The Holy Prophet (PBUH) on the importance of mosques
• Ye people, praise Allah. Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah, The Exalted, shall build a house for such a one in paradise.
• To Allah, the most adored places are the mosques and the most undesirable places are market places.
• Mosques are the houses of Allah and those believers who enter therein are the guests of Allah.
• Those who visit the mosques in darkness convey to them the good news that Allah shall bestow upon them from Himself perfect light on the Day of Judgment.
• For him who makes his ablutions at home and then walks to one of the houses of Allah to discharge his obligations imposed on him by Allah, one single step of his towards the mosque wipes out a sin and next step raises his status.
• Whenever anyone of you enters a mosque let him pray that "O Allah open up for me the doors of Thy Mercy"; and whenever anyone from among you leaves a mosque, let him pray “O Allah, I seek from Thee Thy blessings".
• Of all the buildings the most beautiful and attractive in Allah's sight is a Mosque.
