At its core, a Waqf is about preserving the gift and using its returns to serve the community. Here’s how it works for our masjid:
When you donate — whether it’s cash, property, land, or a portion of business profits — it will become part of a permanent endowment fund dedicated to Allah (ﷻ).
Cash is invested in halal, income-producing ventures.
Property & land are rented or developed, generating ongoing income.
Business shares allow a percentage of profits to go toward the Waqf every year.
The goal is for the original asset to be preserved — primarily, the returns are used, so your gift keeps working for generations.
The returns from the endowment fund, once established, will support our core priorities, including:
Education – Weekend madrassa, Qur’an programs, youth mentorship, Islamic scholarships.
Facilities & Recreation – Expanding prayer spaces, classrooms, recreation areas, parking, and accessibility.
Social Services – Food distribution, emergency aid, mental health support, and a masjid-operated funeral home.
Operations – Staff salaries, utilities, and ongoing program costs so services remain uninterrupted.
Because the original donation is invested and benefits keep flowing, your contribution is sadaqah jāriyah — ongoing charity. Every prayer in the masjid, every child learning Qur’an, every family supported — you share in the reward for as long as the Waqf exists.
Note: Any donations made currently will be made to As-Siddiq Muslim Organization and will be transferred to the Endowment Fund once fully established.
