Jamiah Qasimul Uloom (JQU) is an institute established in 2015 to provide the Muslim community with traditional Islamic education. Mufti Ahmed Bemat (d. 2004) and Maulana Asad Bemat (d. 1993) had a vision to start an Islamic seminary in Toronto for the community.
The name, as suggested many years ago by Mufti Ahmed Bemat, is primarily based on the Prophetic Tradition in which he ﷺ said, “And indeed I am a distributor (Qasim), and Allah is the only One Who truly gives.”
Assalamu Alaykum,
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, We pray that you are in the best of health and iman. Alhamdulillah, Jamiah Qasimul Uloom has been presented with a valuable opportunity to acquire the plaza we are currently operating from, 3482 Lawrence Ave. E
This property is income-generating and will, Inshaa Allah, provide long-term financial stability for the institution and its services to the community.It will also provide more space for the current student base (400+) and allow expansion. We are currently renting a part of this property and hope not to lose a place which has become a home for many.
Community services which are currently being provided and will be initiated:
– Madrasah (higher Islamic education: Alim/hifz)
– Maktab
– Salah space (5 Salahs, Jumuah, Taraweeh)
– Youth programs
– Fatwa department
– Elementary school
– Islamic library
– Islamic Bookstores
To move forward, we are seeking support from our community through:
-Qardh Hasanah (interest-free loans)
-Donations (Sadaqah / Lillah) Every contribution, big or small, will play a vital role in securing this asset for the future of the Jamiah.
The timeline for this opportunity is short, with offers expected between April 6–8, so we kindly request your prompt consideration and support. Insha Allah, an offer will be made by us in the coming week. By the will of Allah, once the offer is accepted, we will need to begin securing the remainder of the money.
Please find the attached commitment form for your participation.
