You will be well aware of giving lillah and sadaqah in this holy month. We urgently require an abundance of your duas and to financial assistance to clear a loan of £92,000.By the grace and mercy of the All-Mighty Allah, Al Abrar Academy (Charity No:1167207) first opened its doors on the 13th October 2013. Al Abrar Academy was established through the blessings and duas of our pious predecessors. A gap had been identified amongst the local community relating to the lack of Islamic knowledge and guidance, which was leading people towards the disobedience of the All-Mighty. A centre that would cater for the religious needs of the community was much needed.The Academy has therefore been set up to serve and address this need. It is a much needed interface with the wider community to help people improve their understanding of Islam and shariah. The academy provides classes, children’s evening madrasah, activities, and daily tarbiya programs. Masha Allah the academy is oversubscribed therefore we are struggling to accommodate those on the waiting list.On Friday and Eid prayers the toilets and wudhu area is proving to be too small. We have come a long way from what was only a vision , changing the lives of many.This is an opportunity for us to reap the rewards of all the good work that is taking place at the academy. Please donate generously to this noble cause so we can return the money that has been borrowed and remember that one’s wealth does not decrease when spending in the path of Allah and that his reward is with Allah in the hereafter. Al Abrar Academy is running under the tutelage of Sheikh Asif Ibrahim Sahib DB.We therefore request any donations you can offer for this most noble of causes. JazzakAllahu Khayrun Charity No: 1167207
