Excellent Services Of Masjid-ul Mu’mineen Relief Project

Masjid-ul Mu’mineen, located at 8875 Benning Drive (off West Bellfort at India Center), Southwest Houston, Texas TX 77031-2441, is one of the distinct Masajids of Houston. It has been providing for the past twenty years religious, cultural, social, and relief services to not only Muslims, but non-Muslims. Its activities are organized by the Nigerian Muslim Association of Greater Houston (NMA). Originally it started with a community of around 1,000 persons, which have now increased to around 45,000.

One of the major programs of Masjid-ul Mu’mineen is the Relief Project. Through this, all the Zakat, Sadaqat, Fitra, and general donation money received to assist those in needs, Masjid-ul Mu’mineen distributes those resources in most transparent and organized manner.

Every year after Eid, Masjid-ul Mu’mineen Relief Project, organizes an impressive and much needed program for the refugees, who have come to Houston from various Muslim countries and distribute Eid Gifts & have nice luncheon for the families.

This year a different program was arranged for the Somalian Refugees in Houston. Instead of Masjid-ul Mu’mineen organizing the program, they asked the Somalian Refugees to organize the program themselves. Over the years, the Somalian refugees community have organized themselves and have formed an association called “The AL-Qamar Cultural And Educational Foundation”.

So Masjid-ul Mu’mineen Relief Project gave all the resources to The AL-Qamar Cultural And Educational Foundation, like the sound system and the Community Hall besides Masjid-ul Mu’mineen, food for luncheon, gifts for children, and so on; and asked them to arrange their program themselves.

The AL-Qamar Cultural And Educational Foundation organized a excellent program of Quran recitation, supplications, Q-&-A session about social, cultural, and family needs of the community, refreshments, gifts for children & families, and much more. This very well arranged and much needed program started around 10am and went till 3pm.

Our media outlet congratulates Masjid-ul Mu’mineen for empowering another upcoming Somalian refugees community and their organization The AL-Qamar Cultural And Educational Foundation. This collaboration is not seen much around us and need to be appreciated and acclaimed.

Everyone in the community is being encouraged to visit Masjid-ul Mu’mineen and learn about the regular positive activities. For more information, one can visit http://masjidulmumineen.org/
