The Muslim community in Victoria is experiencing increasingly limited space at our current Masjid. As our community continues to grow, the existing building’s capacity and parking restrictions have highlighted the need for an additional Masjid. This new facility will allow us to offer essential programs and services, such as Salat al-Jumu’ah, Salat al-Tarawih, and Iftar dinners.
Al-Hamdulillah, our community is flourishing, and we must plan for the next 10-20 years to meet the rising needs of our members here in Victoria.
A project of this size and importance needs strong financial support. Donations are the best way to cover the costs, and there are also opportunities for no-interest loans. Besides financial help, many non-financial contributions are crucial. Volunteering, organizing fundraisers, and spreading the word in-person or through social media can greatly help. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference and brings us closer to our goal. Community involvement is key to the success of this project. By working together, we can achieve something truly remarkable. Let’s come together to support this important initiative.
Our immediate goal is to raise $1 million. This crucial first step will enable us to explore and secure potential properties, whether they be available buildings, lots, or even churches that can be transformed into our new mosque. Achieving this milestone will lay the foundation for our ultimate goal of raising $5 million to complete this noble project.
The Victoria Muslim community has initiated a project to address the urgent need for a new Masjid due to the rapidly outgrowing current facilities. This new Masjid will serve as a school, community center, library, and central hub for the community. The project requires the collective support of the community through donations, volunteering, and participation in fundraising events.
A fully developed, sustainable Masjid will greatly benefit the growing Muslim population in Victoria by providing essential space, services, and resources for all members, including men, women, and children. The initiative relies entirely on donations, with 100% of the funds going towards the construction of the new Masjid. Community involvement is crucial to achieve the project’s goals and support the expanding needs of the Muslim community in Victoria.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Whoever builds a mosque, desiring thereby Allah’s pleasure, Allah builds for him the like of it in paradise.” [Bukhari]
The objective of this diverse collective is to establish a space where the entire Muslim community can congregate for prayer, fellowship, and access safe environments for religious education and recreational activities.
We all believe in the Quran and Sunnah.
We all come under the umbrella of the One and Only God — Allah.
