As salaam alaykum (Peace be upon you)
Project Overview
The Memphis Islamic Center project has now entered the home stretch and we need your support to be able to move into the building in 2019. We need to raise $250,000 to pay for equipment and technical help to install the safety, security, audio visual and IT systems that will enable us to continue to promote authentic islamic message to a global audience under the exceptional scholarly leadership of Shaykh Yasir Qadhi. Your donation will help pay for key items such as audio visual recording and broadcasting equipment, computer networking/data management system, security cameras, fire/smoke alarms as well as tornado shelter equipment.
As mentioned by Sh Yasir, this is a perfect sadaqa jariya with compounded reward, especially in these last 10 days of Ramadan. We invite you to share in the reward of promoting islamic knowledge to a global audience.
Please donate generously, share this page among your family and friends and most importantly remember us in your sincere dua.
You can also donate directly here on our PayPal page.
