NEW MULTIPURPOSE BUILDING

The existing building was of course not designed according to our needs. We felt a need to build a purpose built building for worshipping, educational, social and cultural activities.

The new building has many features which makes it multipurpose and extremely useful for diverse needs of the entire community in the area. Some features are as follows:

A formal Masjid
Full time school
Library and computer lab
Multipurpose hall for banquet and conferences
Offices and meeting rooms
Gift shop and book store
