13.  We need the utmost of du’as for this project to happen  Muslims in the community have no affiliation with any Masajid due to the distance required to travel to one  Youth in large numbers are avoiding the Masjid as parents are not attached to that form of environment  Your help in making du’a for us and with your generous donations will allow us to expand and establish an appropriate House of Allah (Swt) for the Northeast community of Brampton, Ontario and also engage the youth to better themselves so they are positive role models in this life and be successful in the life hereafter. Please help us…
