As an important component of its House of Mercy project, the American Moslem Foundation has developed plans and secured building permits for a "Specialized Instruction School" which will serve a critical role in advancing religious education as well as the preservation of national and ethnic heritage of Muslim immigrants.

The school will offer introductory and "refresher" religious courses, language classes (Persian, Urdu, etc.), lecture series, and provide a meeting place for Muslims here in the Northwest. Classes, sponsored events, and social activities at the school are expected to foster a greater understanding of Muslims and Islamic religion for Americans. It is also expected to encourage the children of American Muslim families to become more familiar with their own cultural and religious heritage. We are certain that this facility will engender a keener sense of community and participatory spirit among  Muslims in the Northwest.

As a recognized center of Islamic learning, we are hopeful that the Specialized Instruction School with its dormitory (artist's rendering at left) can interact with colleges and universities in support of the development of educational and research programs on Islam and the Muslim communities of America. We expect that this school and center will serve as a place for people of monotheistic religions to communicate with each other in search of truth and learn to work together for the good of all.

Construction of the Specialized Instruction School depends upon the availability of funds. We have the building permits and plans.  This is a good opportunity for serious believers in Islam to do a good deed for the sake of Allah and their fellow Muslims. Their names will be preserved in Muslim communities for centuries to come. Please contact us for further information at (253) 638-9989; Fax: (253) 588-8994; e-mail  msarram@americanmoslemfdtn.org, or write to House of Mercy, 15004 SE 256th St, Covington, WA 98042.

Obviously, the cost of developing and maintaining such a facility is not small. The Specialized Instruction School can only become a reality through the assistance of the extended American Muslim family and generous donors. Please include the Specialized Instruction School in your will and/or make endowment (Waghf) in your name or the name of your beloved ones to this institution.
