Frequenty Asked Questions
-
Who is leading this effort?
An endeavor of this magnitude, literally, takes a village! A team of community members with experiences in construction, project management, banking, business, healthcare, dentistry, strategic planning, and engineering are engaged in this project. We continue to accept volunteers with experiences to compliment and enrich the current team.
-
Is Maryam Masjid and Islamic Community
Center
part of Spokane Islamic Center?
No. Maryam Masjid is an independent Muslim Community organization and will be governed by its own bylaws and elected management team. Maryam Masjid will collaborate with SIC and other regional and national Islamic organizations in service to the Muslims of Greater Spokane and North Idaho areas.
-
Where will the new masjid be located?
We currently provide services from a small rented space on the north side of town, where many Muslims live and work. To better serve our growing community, we are purchasing a 10-acre parcel of land just 10 minutes north of our temporary location. We need your support to complete this purchase and are seeking $450,000 to secure the land. Your generous donation will help establish a permanent home for our school and masjid and strengthen our community for generations to come.
-
Are there architectural
drawings of
the Center available?
We are collaborating with an architect to design the school and masjid. The first draft of the plans will be ready soon, and we look forward to sharing it with the community for feedback. Your input will help shape a space that truly serves our needs and future generations.
-
When will the Center be built?
With Allah’s help and your support, insha-Allah, we will begin the first phase of this project as soon as we complete the land purchase. In the meantime, we will work together to raise the necessary funds for both the acquisition and construction. This project is a shared responsibility, and every member of our community has a vital role in making it a reality
