Help pay off Highbridge Islamic Center Inc

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page for Highbridge Islamic Center (HBIC). As you may or may not know , HBIC started off as Masjid Deyaue in an apartment in the late 1980s. When our elders first arrived , they used a bedroom in an apartment as masjid deyaue. A few years later they were able to rent a basement of an apartment building. In this space , children from all over the Highbridge community and the rest of the Bronx would come
Learn Arabic and Quran under the direction of Imam/ Dr. Moussa Wague. Other teachers who contributed many years to this mosque included Sheick Omar Drame and Oustaz Haji Danso and many others , May Allah reward them 
All.

In 2010, the mosque with the help of the community purchased a house on Plimpton ave for $500,000 however it is now over a decade and the mosque is not paid off. We ask that family , friends , colleagues and community members all help us for the sake of Allah , so that the community can move forward with other programs such as a youth program.

Currently , HBIC has classes for men , women’s classes on weekdays , children’s classes on weekends and working towards a tahfiz/memorization class for kids on weekdays. The mosque also offers immigration assistance , and letters of recommendation for our members. 

Prophet Muhammed PBUH states that “whoever builds a masjid Allah will build a house for him in Jannah.” Help us make a difference by supporting a good cause! Any donation will help make an impact in our community. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause. Allah knows best.
