Alhamdulillah with great joy, we the Madinat ul Uloom (board of directors) would like to share with you the GREAT news that with your duas and support of Donations as well as loans (Qarz e Hasanah) we were able to close on the property in early February 2019! May Allah Ta’Ala reward everyone who donated and to brothers and sisters who made efforts for collections.

We were able to complete our target of $730,000 in time Alhamdulillah with Donations and Acquiring Loans (Qarz e Hasana) from various Muslim Community centers and members of Chicagoland area.

We are still in need of sincere duas, and generous donations to payback the loans (Qarz e Hasanah), and to make improvements.

The new Masjid is located at 7401 N Lincoln Avenue in Skokie IL. You are welcome to join us every Saturday at 1:30 for a tour and for Zuhar salah. Daily Salaah and Activities will start after occupancy is granted by the Village of Skokie.

Urgent Appeal at this Time

Currently we have loans (Qarz e Hasanah) in the amount of $265,000 which have to be paid back and $235,000 of planned improvements and code compliance updates.  Please visit our Donation Store and sponsor an item for your Masjid and take part in the improvement projects.  Remember to share the link with family and friends, near and far.  May Allah reward you immensely for your efforts!

“Who is he that will lend to Allah a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? And it is Allah  Allah that decreases or increases (your provisions), and unto Him you shall return”. (Surah Al Baqarah verse 245).

Furthermore, Quran talks about lending money for the great cause, Allah swt says:

“And lend to Allah a goodly loan, and whatever good you send before you for yourselves, you will certainly find it with Allah, better and greater in reward”.(Surah Muzzammil verse 20)
