By the grace of Allah, we have come a long way in the past decades in establishing an Islamic community from our unknown existence. Our march, however, has just begun, we have to go a long way and the pressure of the future would be considerably more than what we can anticipate.

All this progress and achievement were possible due to the generous financial and moral support of the community. Every year hundreds of Muslim brothers and sisters contribute voluntary services for the community which amounts to thousands of man hours. May Allah bless them and all of us.

The spirit of a united and active community is essential for the preservation of our entity and identity. We must not forget the Muslims who came to this country several years ago but lost their Islamic identity due to lack of an active organized community. InshaAllah this will never happen to us because we are united and active and are making an organized effort towards achieving our common objectives.


The MSOG governing body may choose to affiliate MSOG with any other Islamic organization as long as said organization does not practice or promote any principles or activities that contradict the Quran and Sunnah.
