Alhamdulilah, by the blessings of Allah, YMCO are happy to announce the launch of Newport’s first Muslim run Community Hub!

“When a son of Adam dies, his good works come to an end, except for three: sadaqah jariyyah (ongoing charity), beneficial knowledge (that he discovered or propagated), and a righteous child who will pray for him.”
[Reported in Saheeh Bukhari and Saheeh Muslim]
Helping to establish this centre counts as sadaqah jariyyah, a special act of charity which continues to provide the reward of ongoing good deeds to its giver even after they have reached their grave. We pray that you will take this opportunity to invest in your community, your city and your hereafter.
