Renovation / Permit status
Last updated: 24 April 2022
Alhamdulillah we finally got the permit to be a Place of Worship after we won the case at VCAT which was going on for over two years.
Part of the requirement is to build an emergency staircase from the first floor and to expand the building and build bathrooms with wudu area on the ground floor.
We need about $50,000 to commence construction. Once the funds have been raised and the construction is completed, we can reopen Melbourne Madinah.
Sheikh Sajid Umar was here recently and kindly recorded a video explaining the situation.
Alhamdulillah, when the community got together to buy this building, over 25 thousand people contributed. We need your contributions again to reach our target of $50,000.
Please donate even as low as $10 for every dollar counts.
For more information on how to donate, please visit http://www.madinahnext.org/donate/
We need your urgent help to raise these funds and reopen again!
The Madinah Next campaign
The Madinah Next campaign is about establishing a permanent Madinah in the Melbourne CBD. Why? So that the Muslims have a place they can call home, right in the city. When they're working, studying or just dropping by for some shopping. The time to do this is now, with your support, before property prices sky rocket in the city. The Madinah is run by you, for the community. Whether or not you personally frequent the Madinah, just the fact that you will be facilitating prayers for 1000s of Muslims on it's own should make everyone of us yearn to be part of this project.
