Masjid Construction in Earthquake Areas - Pakistan/Kashmir

The mosque is a fundamental part of any muslim community, providing much more than just being a place to come and worship within. It provides essential provision including madrassah (Islamic school) provisions and often a base from which essential supplies can be distributed. Donations can be made towards a communal project or if one wishes to donate towards an entire Masjid, please enquire for details.

The first and foremost duty performed by the Prophet (peace be upon him) upon entering Al-Madinah at the time of migration was also to build a mosque. He (peace be upon him) also said, ‘Whosoever builds a house (Masjid) for the pleasure of Allah, whether it be small or large, Allah builds for him a house in paradise.’

(at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Khuzaymah, Ibn Hibban, Abu Dawud, and Ahmad)



The devastating earthquake that struck Pakistan in 2005 destroyed approximately 500 Masajid throughout the whole area. Ummah Welfare Trust took this blessed opportunity to provide the displaced people with Masajid so that their spiritual well being can be sustained. UWT has constructed over 26 Masajid in various locations.

The Masajid are constructed with fibre glass with a long life span and are complete with carpets, Mimber and microphone systems.

Cost for one Masjid is £3,500
