With more people embracing Islam than ever before, our work is essential. But as a volunteer-run group our resources are stretched thin. Join us to show the hospitality and compassion of Islam, as did the companions of our Prophet ﷺ. The cost of a coffee could help a new Muslim find their community.

The services we provide for new Muslims are Zakat compliant. As Allah guides us to whom to give, as illustrated in the verse below, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was also known to give and reconcile hearts.
'The charitable offerings are only for the poor, and the destitute and those who collect (the zakat) and those whose hearts are (to be) reconciled and for (ransoming) slaves and debtors and in God’s path, and the wayfarer, as an obligation from God and God is Knowing , Wise.’
— Holy Qur’an 9: 60
