Bismillah Ar Rahmaan Ar Raheem was-salaatu was-salaam 'alaa Rasoolillaah
As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah
The administration of Masjidul Bayaan is sad to report that we have
lost our lease without the option of extension. As of January 15th we
will be vacating 209 Bond Street. This leaves us in a situation where
we are quickly looking at potential rentals while searching for a more
permanent solution. Formerly, we had hoped to renovate our property on
Sewall Ave that was purchased for this purpose. However, after working
extensively with a local architectural firm it was determined that
renovations would cost over $1 million. The decision was made that this
is well beyond the means of our small community and it is now on the
market for sale.
At this time we are closely looking at rental properties, and hope to
move quickly so that there is no significant amount of time where the
community of Asbury Park does not have a building, inshaaAllah tala.
The estimated cost for our current needs is $8,000-$10,000. This amount
needed is for rental deposit, rent, and lawyer fees to address any city
zoning issues.
We are turning to the online community to ask for help as it is not
always easy for our community to raise significant amounts quickly.
Donating is very simple and can be done either online or through postal
mail.
