Asalaam aleykum brothers and sisters, brother Mujahid informed us that they need some extra hands to help with the construction of the masjid being built on California and 27th st. We will be meeting on Friday, October 1, 2010 at the masjid on 1525 Long Beach Blvd; Long Beach, CA 90813-1923 located on Long Beach Blvd. and 15th st. for Fajr and then go to the building site from there. We'll be working for about 2 hours but remember that the reward will last for far longer.
In Sahih al-Bukhari we find that the Prophet s.a.w. said that whoever builds a mosque seeking Allah's pleasure, large or small, Allah will build a house for them in Paradise.
He s.a.w. also said that “Among what continues to accrue for a believer of his good works after death are the following: knowledge that he learned and then imparted to others, a pious child whom he left behind, a copy of the Qur’ân that he bequeathed, a mosque that he built, a guest house he built for travelers, a river that he made to flow, and charity he spends from his wealth when he is in good health – all of this continues to avail him after his death.”
Inshalla we get this reward and may Allah s.w.t. make this masjid a blessing to our community.
Asalaam aleykum
