[Update June 19, 2020]

Dear all Brothers and Sisters in Islam,
Bismi Allah and Alhamduli Allah...
The Masjid project is almost funded by Allah grace and by your generous donations. Therefore, we are extending this campaign for additional 3 days until end of June 25th (June 26th 00:00 am). All received and remained donations after completing the Masjid purchasing budget will be dedicated for a minor renovation and interior furnishing of the building of the Masjid, In Sha' Allah.
May Allah accept from all of you, and Jazakum Allah Khair.

About the project:
1- Objectives and current situation 

    Alhamdu-li Allah, Kyoto Muslim Community (KMC), a registered IPPAN SHADAN HOUJIN in Japan to become a religious organization, is planning to establish the Kyoto Central Masjid (KCM) that serves Muslims in the city of Kyoto and their families, including big number of Muslim tourists around the year.

    In 2019, KMC aimed to purchase an entire building consisting of three floors near to Kyoto University. In Dec 2019, we started a contract with the owner through real estate company for that purpose. The estimated total cost of the property, including commission and tax, is nearly 59 Million JPY. We have already paid 10% of the cost to the owner and 50% of the company’s commission. The rest of the total cost was agreed to be paid by June 30th 2020 or we face a penalty of losing the contract including the payed 10%. By the Help of Allah, we have made big efforts to raise around 25% of the total fund within Japan. Our hope to Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala that He grants us with the remaining 75% in the due time through the support of brothers and sisters all over the world and share the Thawab with all of you, Ameen.




2- project significance

Kyoto has 130 Christian churches but zero dedicated Masjid! Therefore, KCM is going to be the first real one in Kyoto

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allah Wa Barakatuh.
Dear sisters and brothers

Only 18 days remaining to the end of the campaign. We have to complete the payment to the building honor before deadline, so please help. Otherwise, we may not have our dream comes true. Without a complete payment the purchase contract will be invalid and we will lose the down payment of 5.5 million Japanese yen (aprox. 54,100 USD).
The best you can help the campaign is by sharing widely.
If you know someone who speaks English or Arabic or Bahasa Malay or French or Bahasa Indonesia, please share with.

Call for donations

Bismillah wa Alhamdulillah...

Together, let's build more and more Masjids for our Muslim community and future generations here in Japan.
Lets invest in saving for our future and for our Akhirah.

Project for Kyoto Masjid
Please share far and wide!

Here in Japan, information about Islam is very lacking. More than 99.9 % of Japanese people are not Muslim and they don’t know much about Islam. However the Japanese are smart learners. The only problem is we don’t have enough places for them to go to know about Islam. Most of them don’t know anything about Islam. Let's help them to know Allah Subhanahu wa T'ala and Jannah. They need to be given a chance to learn about Islam and we here in the Kyoto Muslim Community work so hard to give them this chance in Sha' Allah.

But we cannot make it happen alone. We need Muslims around the world to help us with the help of Allah to donate generously to buy the target building and turn it in to the first Masjid in Kyoto. By His Will, let's come together and establish the Kyoto Central Masjid. To support the campaign, please visit:

بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

الجمعية العامة المدمجة لجالية مسلمي كيوتو
باليابان
مشروع الصدقة الجارية لإقامة أول مسجد في مدينة كيوتو
السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

اخواننا واخواتنا في الله ندعوكم للمشاركة معنا لإقامة أول مسجد في مدينة كيوتو العريقة، عاصمة الإمبراطورية اليابانية القديمة، وذلك خدمة للجالية المسلمة من المقيمين والزائرين لهذه المدينة الحيوية، ليكون نواة لعمل إسلامي مؤسسي يعلي اسم الله سبحانه وتعالى ويحفظ علينا ديننا ودين الأجيال القادمة من بعدنا

تجارة مع الله سبحانه وتعالى، السعيد فيها من وُفق للإستثمار فيها لينال البركة في الدنيا والأجر العظيم في الآخرة بإذن الله تعالى
نرجو أن لا تنسونا من دعائكم ودعمكم المادي والمعنوي في إيصال هذه الرسالة إلى أكبر عدد ممكن حتى نتمكن من استكمال ما تبقى من مبالغ لإتمام هذا المشروع في أسرع وقت ممكن بإذن الله تعالى لإقامة بيت من بيوت الله تقام فيه الصلوات الخمس يجتمع فيه المسلمون ليذكرهم بدينهم ويساعد المغتربين والطلبة منهم، فلا تترددوا بالتبرع والمشاركة من خلال الرابط أدناه:

www.launchgood.com/kyoto_mosque

بالرغم من أننا نعيش هذه الثورة المعلوماتية التي اوصلت الشرق بالغرب والجنوب بالشمال إلا أن المعلومات المتاحة عن الإسلام باللغة اليابانية تكاد تكون نادرة وشحيحة؛ حيث أن الغالبية العظمى من اليابانيين لا يعرف شيئاً عن الإسلام إلا من خلال ما يعرض على القنوات العالمية من معلومات والتي قد لا تكون حقيقية أو دقيقة في أغلب الأحيان؛ ومن حق اليابانيين علينا - كما هو الحال مع الشعوب الأخرى - أن نبلغهم رسالة الإسلام وندعوهم لدين الله الحق والتوحيد الخالص لله سبحانه وتعالى. والشعب الياباني شعب يتمتع بحب المطالعة والتعرف على كل ما حوله من ثقافات وأديان، وهذه فرصتنا لتعريفهم بدين الله من خلال هذا المسجد المتواضع في حجمه الكبير في أثره بإذن الله تعالى.

ونختم دعوتنا هذه بقول الله تعالى { وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ قَوْلًا مِّمَّن دَعَا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا وَقَالَ إِنَّنِي مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ} فصلت، الآية ٣٣

نسأل الله سبحانه وتعالى الإخلاص والقبول

والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

Pembinaan Masjid di Kyoto, Jepun.



Bismillah


Kyoto Muslim Community (KMC) adalah organisasi berdaftar di Jepun 'Ippan Shadan Houjin' (一般社団法人), dan bercadang untuk membina masjid.



Pada tahun 2019, kontrak dibuat dengan syarikat hartanah Jepun di mana kos menjangkau dalam 59 juta yen (RM2.39 juta).



KMC sudahpun membayar 10% dari jumlah kos kepada pemilik tanah dan 50% kepada syarikat hartanah.



Bakinya dipersetujui untuk dibayar selewat-lewatnya 30 Jun 2020. Seandainya lambat, ada kemungkinan perlu membayar penalti kerana hilang hak kontrak.



Buat masa sekarang, 40% dari jumlah sumbangan telah diperolehi di Jepun sendiri. Lagi 60% memerlukan bantuan kalian supaya lagi ramai orang Jepun mendapat berita Islam.



Sumbangan dan sokongan boleh dilaksanakan terus di sini:


www.launchgood.com/kyoto_mosque



Di Jepun, informasi mengenai Islam sangat sedikit. Lebih dari 99.9% orang Jepun bukan beragama Islam dan mereka tidak tahu mengenai info Islam yang sebenar. Pada waktu sekarang KMC sedang mencari tempat yang sesuai bagi membuatkan mereka lebih tahu mengenai Islam. KMC sendiri tidak dapat melakukan semua. Oleh itu, memerlukan dokongan daripada orang Islam di banyak negara bagi membantu kita semua sendiri, seterusnya dapat membina jalan ke akhirat yang lebih baik.


Apabila siap masjid ini melalui derma dan sedekah tuan puan yang ikhlas, amal ini akan menjadi saksi dan hujah kita di Akhirat nanti.



Sebarkan lagi supaya lebih ramai dapat membantu.

Appel aux dons
<Sadaqua Jaria>

Bismillah wa Alhamdulillah

Ensemble, bâtissons la première mosquée à Kyoto, pour notre communauté de musulmans à Kyoto et pour nos futures générations ici au Japon.
Investissons pour nos futures épargnes, pour notre Akhira.

Projet de la Mosquée Centrale de Kyoto.

www.launchgood.com/kyoto_mosque

Ici au Japon, les informations à propos de l’islam sont très rares. Plus de 99,9% de Japonais ne sont pas musulmans et ne savent pas grand-chose à propos de l’islam. Cependant, les Japonais sont enthousiastes et intelligents. Le seul problème c’est que nous n’avons pas assez d’espace pour eux pour leur inviter à connaître l’islam. La majorité d’entre eux ne connaissent rien à propos de l’islam. Aidons leur à connaître et à aimer Allah Subhanaho wa T'ala. On a besoin de les offrir la chance pour connaître l’islam, et nous ici, communauté de musulmans de Kyoto, travaillons très durs pour leur offrir cette chance in Sha' Allah.

Sachant qu’on ne peut pas le faire tout seul, on a besoin de votre support, là où vous êtes, pour offrir des dons pour acheter notre bâtiment cible, et le transformer en mosquée, la première mosquée à Kyoto. Par La volonté d’Allah, unissons nos efforts pour construire la Mosquée Centrale de Kyoto.

Mari berdonasi < Sedekah Jariah >
Bismillah Alhamdulillah
Mari bersama-sama membangun lebih banyak Masjid untuk Komunitas Muslim di Jepang serta untuk generasi berikutnya.
Mari kita berinvestasi untuk masa depan serta untuk amalan akhirat kita kelak.

Proyek Penggalangan Dana Pembangunan Masjid Kyoto
Informasi tentang Islam di Jepang amatlah sangat kurang. Lebih dari 99.9 % dari penduduk Jepang adalah non Muslim dan mereka tidak mengenal tentang Islam. Namun begitu, penduduk Jepang sangat cerdas dan mudah untuk belajar hal-hal baru. Masalah utama dalam mengenalkan Islam di Jepang adalah kurangnya tempat atau fasilitas bagi penduduk Jepang untuk mengenal lebih banyak tentang Islam.
Oleh karena itu, mari kita bantu mereka untuk mengenal Allah Subhanahu wa T'ala dan Surga dalam Islam. Mereka perlu diberikan kesempatan untuk belajar tentang Islam. Insya Allah kami dari Komunitas Muslim Kyoto akan berusaha sekuat tenaga untuk memberikan kesempatan tersebut.
Namun kami tidak bisa berbuat hal tersebut sendirian. Kami butuh bantuan dari umat Muslim di seluruh dunia untuk membantu kami dengan izin Allah SWT. Kami butuh uluran tangan dari seluruh umat Muslim untuk berdonasi membeli bangunan yang kami targetkan akan menjadi Masjid pertama di Kyoto. Dengan izin Allah SWT, mari bersama-sama mewujudkan Kyoto Central Masjid.
Silakan share dan bagikan informasi ini ke teman, kerabat, dan keluarga anda.
