Masjid Abrar Update (Ghana):

‘Alhamdulillah, Masjid Abrar is the only masjid in the area where Jumu’ah Salaat is offered. Also it is the only Islamic information centre of its kind in the region if not the country where there is an after school and weekend madrassah, Islamic library etc.
At the moment there is construction going on to extend the building as we have more students on our waiting list who don’t have a place due to insufficient classrooms and on Friday the place is not big enough to contain the people that turn up for Jumu’ah Salaah.
The Islamic information centre is also actively involved in the efforts of Dawah, distribution of Quraan, Islamic literature books /leaflets etc. and other Islamic activities that will benefit the Ummah. After the construction the Masjid will be able to take about 500 or more people and there will be a Hifz class. InshAllah

This was an update from brother Ibrahim in our Caravan of Mercy office in Ghana regarding our project there.

Quran and Dawah project

There is a great demand for Qurans for Muslims in the West African countries. The non-Muslims in Ghana put a lot of time and effort in spreading their beliefs. Caravan Of Mercy has therefore decided to act. We have printed a number of Islamic Dawah literature as well as French translated Qurans for neighbouring West African countries.  Hopefully, this initiative will help combat the falsehoods which the Muslims of Ghana are facing, inshaAllah.

We accept donations for our Print & Distribute Qur’an project.

In 2013 we printed 20,000 Qurans for West Africa. We acquired permission to print the popular translation; ‘Interpretation of the meanings of the Noble Quran’ which contain both Arabic as well as English text. The translation is by Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al Hilali and Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan. It features explanations from Sahih Al Bukhari.

The public are encouraged to donate the costs for these printed Qur’ans for those Muslims who can not afford this religious necessity. To the donor, each book costs £3.00 (a cost which will cover transport, printing and distribution).

Serrekundading, Gambia; washed out

Al Hamdulillah, Caravan of Mercy has a number of humanitarian and charitable projects in different parts of the Gambia. Such projects include child and adult education, food, clothing and Quran distribution and building projects.

Serrekundading is a village located east of Brikama next to Kembujae. Caravan of Mercy has been supporting the Serrekundading public through it’s Madressah since it was established six years ago. Sadly this Madressah has since collapsed.

The Madressah once housed 200 students from Serrekundading and surrounding villages and was the only one of it’s kind in the area.
The Madressah was made up of two classrooms, one office and a store-room, all financed and constructed by the locals with mud bricks. The roofing and doors were provided by Caravan of Mercy. The ages of the children taught there ranged from 7 to 15 years. They were tutored by 4 teachers who taught them Quran and Islamic subjects as well as English language, mathematics, science and social and environmental studies.

During the annual rain season in 2013, the region experienced such torrential rain falls that utterly destroyed the Madressah.

The locals are now desperate to have a new stronger building erected to fulfill their basic religious needs. A building that can withstand both the heat and heavy down-pours of rain.

The proposed Madressah building is estimated to cost £15,000.

Caravan of Mercy are therefore seeking donations in order to help the Gambians in Serrekundading.
