This campaign will collect all funds raised by August 22, 2017 at 7:00 AM EDT

Help fund programming that will bring experts to Calgary to facilitate knowledge and spiritual growth of new Muslims and knowledge seekers.


Amplify your Reward in the Last 10 Days. 

With the potential for having acts of worship land on Laylat al Qadr in the last 10 days of Ramadan please donate to this initiative and have your sadaqah worth as if you have donated every day for 1000 months, inshaAllah. 


What's it all for?

Our dream and intention is to access knowledgeable thought leaders, inviting them to our city and help us develop opportunities for spiritual and religious growth for the sake of improving ourselves and establishing intentionally community. 

To bring such people to Calgary there is always some cost involved, such as paying for flights and honorariums for the guests we invite. 


Our story

In Autumn 2013, New Muslim Circle started as a small group of new Muslims reading the Martin Lings biography about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), but grew to providing regular and relevant peer support to our newest community members. We are in our next chapter and looking to do more with ihsan (excellence). 


The details 

In bringing a guest speaker or two to Calgary, we want to partner up with local imams and youth leaders to further develop Calgary's response to the needs of new Muslims and born-Muslims in there development of a healthy practice of Islam in a relevant cultural context. 

We just completed a successful campaign in Ramadan 2017 to fund knowledge bags filled with books for new Muslims and knowledge seeker. But having the right teachers come give us a kickstart is another deeply needed ingredient we need your help with. 

InshaAllah, we hope to have guest teachers and others in our midst as soon as scheduling allows. We will always keep donors updated of the progress and use of the funds. 

We would love to invite Ustadh Usama Canon, Founding Director of Ta'leef Collective.


Plus, we need some funds to pay for a year's worth of web hosting ($129) and fee to establish our group as an official society in our province ($100). 


How do you help?

Our goal is a modest $2500. Please do what you can to spare some extra sadaqah to help us bring about the best for converts and recommitting muslims in our community. Just hit that donate button and give what you can. May Allah Reward You.
