Salaam 3laykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu oh beloved ummah. Here is the story of brother Ismail and alhamdulillah may his story be an inspiration for those inquiring, inshallah.
Everyone has a different journey to Islam regardless of the similarities and stereotypes. May Allah subhanahu wa ta3la bless those who strive to stay on the mustaqeem inshallah.

We are raising money for maintenance purposes, books, and other equipment to get the masjid up and running.
May Allah subhanahu wa ta3la reward the brothers and sisters who can make any contribution to establish this house of Allah founded upon Tauhid.
May Allah grant you all the highest levels of paradise Ameen.
Whoever builds a house for Allah will have a house built for him in paradise.
