Volunteering With Us
At Iqra Academy, our work is made possible through the dedication, time, and sincerity of volunteers who serve for the sake of Allah (swt) and the benefit of the community. Volunteering in the masjid is not only a means of giving back, but also an act of worship that carries ongoing reward (sadaqah jariyah).
The Prophet ﷺ said that the most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to others. With this spirit, we invite brothers and sisters from our community to contribute their skills, time, and energy in helping Iqra Academy continue to grow as a centre of learning, worship, and community support.
