Building a Mosque. Building a Community.
A mosque construction initiative in Yumbe District, Uganda, in collaboration with NIDAU-Uganda.
View Construction ProgressAlhamdulillah, We Reached Our Goal.
The RM300,000 fundraising target has been successfully achieved. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this meaningful project.
A Place of Worship, Knowledge and Community
In Malaysia, mosques, suraus and prayer halls can be found almost everywhere. However, for our brothers and sisters in Uganda, having a comfortable and proper mosque remains a significant challenge.
They need a place of worship that is not only suitable for performing prayers, but also serves as a centre for Islamic education and a gathering place for the local community.
In collaboration with NIDAU-Uganda, the project set out to raise RM300,000, with 100% of the funds collected dedicated to the construction of a mosque in Yumbe District, a region locally known as “Muslim Town”.
Population figures are estimates cited in the original project description.
Addressing the Community’s Needs
Despite the large Muslim population in the district, many existing mosques face challenges that affect worship and community activities.
Severe overcrowding, especially during Friday prayers and Ramadan.
Weak or temporary building structures.
Inadequate toilet and ablution facilities.
Lack of dedicated spaces for women and youth development programmes.

Locally Supervised, Community Focused
This project is directly supervised by Drate Rasul, one of the alumni of our DawahPro programme, who is originally from Uganda.
He is the main person in charge of the mosque construction project and continues to actively spread the message of Islam and promote Islamic education among the local community.
His involvement supports the project’s commitment to integrity, transparency and long-term positive impact.
