EMPOWERING A VILLAGE THROUGH WORSHIP


AlhamduAllah we at Lindi Islamic Foundation of Tanzania (LIFT) received a small donation to start construction of new masjid in the village of Mvuleni in the Lindi Rural District of Lindi Region in Tanzania. The population is approximately 5,000. The current masjid is too close to the road and the current masjid is too small to support the village.  When the road expands, they will lose the old masjid.



The sister whose land and house were adjacent to the masjid gave part of her land for a new masjid, In return, the village will build her a small house further back on the land.

We had faith that we could use what funds we had to complete the initial masonry work (brick skeleton). 




Even with this outer structure, the community insists it will have Eid prayers in this new masjid,




The community has contributed their labor.


We now appeal to you to help us complete.  We still need funding for the corrugated roof sheets, plastering, windows, fans, wiring, and tiles.


Jazakumullahu Khahir

Roofing wood ready

 

as salaam alaikum

This week, we have completed the acquisition of wood for the roofing.  We paid  for the permit from the Tanzania Natural Resources Ministry. Additionally we completed payment for  the labor. Pictured is  the inspection and stamping of  the wood by  the government.

To-date we have funds for  the labor to place the wood;  however, we do not have funding for  the corrugated sheets to date.  That is, we have gone as far as we can to-date. But inShaAllah we are hopeful.  AlhamduAllah, it is currently dry season.
