"In the Name of Allah, The Compassionate, The Merciful"

on the 20th of March, 2001, Ahlul-Bayt Center made the first payment towards acquiring the school building on 200 Baribeau St, Ottawa. The amount paid is $450,000, collected from donations, khums, and loans. The borrowed money makes %20 of the first payment. As part of the agreement with the school board, Ahlul-Bayt Center has a grace period of a year to complete the deal; i.e. pay the remaining $125,000 of the school price amounting to $575,000. The school building is now under our possession, but the registration will proceed once we provide the final amount. 

Ahlul-Bayt Center is still looking for funding sources through donations and khums to close the debt and make the final payment, especially after considering the interest accumulation on part of the loan. Our target for next year is to collect $200,000. InshaAllah, we will make it with Allah's support manifested by your generosity and care for this Islamic work. 

Ahlul-Bayt Center is calling on every believer, who heard about the school project, to have a stake in the heavenly awards generated by a work meant to educate Muslim kids about their faith and moral values. May Allah include us all in his mercy and redeem our work by his awards. It is every Muslim's duty to support and preserve the Islamic schools in Ottawa and other cities. The bottom line is that a sincere Islamic education counts in raising Muslim kids based on Quranic teachings and Islamic Moral values.
