With your invaluable support, we have successfully paid a downpayment of $1.5 million. This significant milestone allows us to move forward with our ambitious plans to construct an Islamic centre, a community hub and an educational center.

Now, we appeal for your continued assistance in realizing our vision by aiding in the next payment of $3 million to complete the acquisition of our new Islamic Center.

Our objective is to provide our children with the means to uphold our cherished Islamic values at a time when greater society is moving in the opposite direction.

In this ever-changing world, it is our responsibility to safeguard our children and cultivate institutions that can nurture robust Islamic foundations. Your support in building the Islamic Center is pivotal to achieving this goal.

What Your Sadaqah Will Build إن شاء الله:

Community Resources and Invitation Center

Community Resources and Invitation Center

✅ This is a centre in the heart of the Guildford area in Surrey. This centre is going to serve as a community centre and an Islamic centre is set to become one of Surrey’s largest, capable of accommodating up to 1000 worshippers simultaneously. It will offer daily Quranic classes, as well as separate Halaqas (study circles) for men, women, and children. Moreover, the mosque will provide Da’wah training programs for those interested in learning and teaching Islamic teachings, as well as comprehensive funeral services, insha’Allah.

Educational Center

Educational Center

✅ GICC already has an educational center, Ibn Mas’ood Madrasah, that runs 7 days a week. We have over 160 boys and girls enrolled, Alhamdulillah. We have more than 9 teachers teaching Arabic, Islamic Studies, Quran, Adab, and more.

The new centre will allow us to take the quality of our programs to the next level. We are certain that our Madrasah program that has been running for over 4 years now will give us the solid foundation for something bigger insha’Allah.

Community Center

Community Center

✅ Our center provides social, physical, and religious services to Muslims of all ages. It will serve as a venue for our Eid celebrations, potlucks, and other events. We already have programs for our seniors and youth.

The new centre will allow us to attract more muslims in the Metro Vancouver region. It will also allow us to have more and continuous events in the future.

Help us secure this land to build high-end facilities to make this Islamic Centre a haven; we want our Muslim brothers and sisters to have their own amazing place of worship that they love and a place that instills the love of Allah SWT.

Our community has grown exponentially in the last 10 years. This is due to many factors such as internal immigration within our province as well as from other provinces. Surrey attracts people to live in it as there is a big base for Muslims and the relatively lower cost of living compared to the neighbouring cities Vancouver and Burnaby for example. Also, in the last 10-15 years, a lot of Muslim refugees made Surrey their home. Brothers and sisters from Iraq and Afghanistan early on then Syria in 2016 onwards.
