Asalaamu alaikum friends,
Ramadan 2026 is upon us, and once again we are coming together to secure the future of Southgate Mosque, Insha’Allah.
Alhamdulillah, our community raised £6.65 million to purchase Southgate House, our historic home in the heart of North London. That was a huge achievement and a testament to what this community can do when we unite.
We now have only £1.1 million remaining in qard hasana (interest-free loans).
Our target this Ramadan is to raise £500,000.
If just 250 families raise £2,000 each, we reach it.
If 500 families raise £1,000 each, we reach it.
This is absolutely achievable, but we must start strong.
The first 10 days of Ramadan are crucial.
The mosque that raises the highest amount in the first 10 days will receive a MEGA £25,000 boost from LaunchGood.
£25,000 could immediately reduce our balance and give us serious momentum.
So let’s not ease into Ramadan this year.
Let’s hit the ground running from Day 1.
Donate early. Share early. Encourage others early.
This year, as well as individual donations, we’re encouraging families and friends to form teams and fundraise together. There will be a live leaderboard throughout Ramadan so we can track progress for each individual team and motivate one another in good.

To create your personal fundraising link, change the text TEAMNAME in the above link to your own personal team or family name, (eg Launchgood.com/southgatemosque2026?srcAHMEDFAMILY) and remember to share your personal link widely. You can use your link straight away to give and encourage others to give, and from our end we will create a personal fundraising page for the teams with the most donations. Let’s hit the ground running!
🥇 1st Prize – Umrah tickets for 2 (minimum raised £20,000)
🥈 2nd Prize – Spiritual retreat in Andalucía for 2 (min raised £10,000)
🥉 3rd Prize – Gift voucher worth £250 (min raised £5000)
And anyone who raises £5,000 or more will be permanently commemorated on our Donor Wall inside the mosque, Insha’Allah.
This is your legacy.
Southgate Mosque is not merely a place of worship. It is a thriving community centre providing essential services, including a weekly food bank serving well over 110 families, as well as youth programmes, educational classes, social clubs and community events for all age groups. We plan to establish a full time girls secondary school, build a purpose built mosque and a community garden for all.
Our community is growing, and the demand for our services continues to increase. We want to expand, to serve more families, more youth, more people in need, but first, we must clear our remaining debt.
We live in uncertain times. But our trust is not in circumstances. Our trust is in Allah. Now is the time to unite in good, to get involved, and to rise together for something lasting.
Ramadan is the month of multiplied reward. This is sadaqah jariyah that will benefit our community for generations. Let’s begin with intention, rise in unity, and end Ramadan 2026 strong.
Please donate generously, create a team, and share your link widely.
Jazakumullahu khairan.
