Also, ICR supports refugees and many needy families through-out the year from Zakat and Sadaqah donations.
Currently, ICR provides all religious, educational & charitable services to hundreds of Muslim families in many rented facilities and need urgent funds to complete construction of its Masjid Project.
Brief History of Masjid Project -
ICR acquired 5.17 acres of land in July 2011 at Hungary Rd and Alhamdulillah paid off immediately in short period of time with the help of generous donations from the local community. To start the construction of Masjid project, the Site Plan was approved by Henrico County in June 2014 which includes installation of pipes for Storm Water, Sewage lines & grading of land to build the parking lot.
Alhamdulillah, with the help of local community, contruction of Site work, Water connection and building of Steel structure completed in Jan 2016. Currenlty, ICR needs additional funds of $450k to continue and complete the constrution of Masjid project by Ramadan - June 2016. Approx. $100k is needed urgently by end of March 2016 to purchase bricks and metal studs to build exterior walls of the Masjid. Remaining funds will be spent in the upcoming months to complete HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing & other essential interior work.
Completion of this work by June 2016, will immensely help ICR and local community to obtain temporary occupancy certificate from the County and conduct Ramadan prayer activities in the New Masjid Inshallah this year. Also, will help ICR to consolidate all its programs under one roof and cut down huge operational costs by moving away from rented facilities whose lease is expiring in Sept 2016.
ICR would like to make an appeal to all internal & external communities to help & support with your donations in building "House of Allah". Your generous contributions will be immediately utilized for the purchase of Bricks and complete building walls of the Masjid.
Uthman ibn Affan reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, then Allah will build for him a similar house in Paradise.”
