In these final days of Ramadan, the Hoda Center needs your support! The Prophet (SAW) said, "The charity you give will be your shade on the Day of Judgment." This is a Sadaqah Jariya (continuous charity).
Alhamduillah, the Hoda Center is celebrating 25 years! Jazakum Allah Kheir to all those who have donated over the years for the large projects which have included new AC, a new roof, updated cameras, etc. May Allah shade you under the thrown on the Day of Judgement.
Your donations this year will be used to update the security of the building (including new doors), updating/modernizing the bathrooms, and repairs to the parking lot.
Hoda Center has multiple ways to donate (see below):
