2X Match for IC Umrah Scholarships | Support Someone In Need to Fulfill their Umrah and Visit Mecca & Madina

8 months ago

as'salaamu alaykum,

Alhamduilllah, we have a match opportunity of up to $15,000 in financial assistance on any donations made by this Sunday for the IC's upcoming umrah trip in January 2024.

We are hopeful to once again lead students, alumni, young professionals, community members, and families in a one-week religious experience like no other alhamdulillah. It will be our 15th time going as a community inshallah and our January trip will take place from January 2nd - 11th, 2025.

All donations made to the Islamic Center Fund by the end of the weekend will go towards providing financial assistance to those needing financial support to perform their umrah.

Help Us Send Someone For Umrah!

The total cost for one person to go is $2,995 and so far we have requests from 84 people seeking ~$174,000. Although we don't anticipate being able to provide that much in aid, we are hoping to raise as much as we can. If you are able to contribute more, please do so. Every dollar will help and the blessing of having facilitated for someone who otherwise would not have the means to go the opportunity to visit the city of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and pray in front of the Kaaba in Mecca is something that is priceless.

If you yourself or someone you know would like to join us on our upcoming umrah trip, you can find more information at icnyu.org/umrah. We would love to have the blessing of your presence on this journey inshallah.

Barakallahu feekum. May Allah bless each of you and your loved ones and give you only the best in this world and the best in the next. Ameen.
