The Musalla today, and what we are building
Our Musalla's ceilings are falling and its roof is giving in. See its condition today, the new Musalla's design and its floor plan, with separate spaces for men and women.

When a family loses someone dear, our community stands beside them in prayer.
We invite you to help build a Musalla where families can gather for Salat al-Janazah and pray for their departed loved ones. A gift of Sadaqah Jariyah.
May Allah accept your generosity and grant mercy to our departed loved ones.
مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ يُنْفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ أَنْبَتَتْ سَبْعَ سَنَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ سُنْبُلَةٍ مِائَةُ حَبَّةٍ ۗ وَاللَّهُ يُضَاعِفُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ ۗ وَاللَّهُ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ
Those who spend their wealth in Allah’s way are like a seed that grows seven ears, with a hundred grains in each. Allah increases the reward for whom He wills. Allah is boundless in bounty and knowledge.
Why a new building is needed
The Musalla today
The CSMJC Cemetery Musalla stands at the gate of the Kabrastan. For many years it has been the place where families bring their loved ones for Salat al-Janazah and the last farewell before burial.
The building has served our community well, but it is old and it is giving way. The ceiling boards have sagged, cracked and fallen, the timber roof frame has rotted, and the roof is giving in. Parts of the ceiling have already had to be taken down for safety.
The Musalla is also too small for the community it serves. At most janazahs the congregation overflows outside, and there is no proper place for families to pay their final respects with dignity. The space for ladies is small and has no entrance of its own.
Faces and vehicle number plates in these photographs have been blurred.
The new Musalla
What we are building
In its place we will build a new Musalla designed around the janazah: a larger prayer hall, a proper place for families to pay their final respects, and separate, private spaces for men and women.
Ladies have their own entrance from the road, their own corridor, their own wudhu area and their own prayer area, with a partition so that men and women do not mix. The men's wudhu area, washrooms and footbath are rebuilt, with a new entrance lobby and hallway leading into the prayer hall.
- Men's prayer area
- about 156 m² (main hall 120 m² and two side areas of 18 m²)
- Ladies' prayer area
- about 49 m²
- Ladies' corridor
- about 24 m², with its own entrance from the road
- Wudhu areas
- about 50 m² in all (men about 40 m², with washrooms and a footbath; ladies about 10 m²)
- Hallway and entrance lobby
- about 27 m²
