IFAM has established its first masjid in WA in Kelmscott, southeastern suburb of Perth, located close to the city Centre and the airport. The masjid was acquired through a successful fundraising campaign of $ 855,000 where the first congregational prayer held was Asr salat on Wednesday 20 Nov 2024.
Kelmscott and its surroundings station several Muslim families where the masjid will play a central role at developing a robust Islamic social network and fostering strong bonds among the community helping towards unity, brotherhood, and cooperation among community members besides giving them more knowledge and spiritual strength.
Brother Faraz Chaudhry, IFAM Shura Member from WA, said, “Kelmscott masjid will provide essential community services in the area and will engage the local community at all levels where it will not only serve the purpose of having daily obligatory prayers but will also as a youth Centre and education hub for our youth and kids.”
He further added, “They will be more attached to the masjid Insha’Allah and we will cater to their needs providing a safe, dynamic and engaging space for our community through service and care.”
Brother Rais Khan, IFAM President congratulated the local Muslim community members for having this masjid in their area and highlighted its importance stating that it was a monumental step in their life and would prove an important milestone for their social and religious needs.
He stated that all IFAM members were thankful to Allah for this great achievement while thanking all people who helped in the process of buying and settlement for the masjid property.
He said that he felt excited that the community was generous in making donations and understanding this important cause for future generations while explaining that IFAM had renovation and development plans for the newly acquired property to serve as a proper masjid and Islamic centre.
