Supporters of Ilmstitute have helped build and maintain an Islamic school in Gambia, West Africa:

2025 Campaign:

Help us keep the school active and growing by contributing to the costs of yearly operations! Our goal this Ramadan is to raise $30,000 if possible, which will help cover the upcoming year’s cost of operating the school insha’Allah.

If anyone needs to make fidya and feed a poor person for every missed day of fasting due to old age or chronic illness, you may do so for $9 per person insha’Allah by e-mailing ilmstitute@gmail.com with the information. JazakumAllahukhairan!
