Dear IAR Community,
Assalamu Alaikum;
We extend our heartfelt Eid Mubarak wishes to you and your families. May Allah accept your prayers and sacrifices, and may Eid bring peace and joy to your hearts. Alhamdulillah, on these blessed days of Eid, we are thrilled to share some historic and joyous news: we have officially received the Certificate of Occupancy for our newest campus, IAR at Page Road!
Nearly 40 years ago, IAR first opened its doors, and today, we stand on the threshold of an exciting new chapter in our history. The journey to this moment has been a long one. It has taken years of planning, fundraising, construction, and countless hours of dedication and collaboration. We want to express our deep gratitude to each of you, our devoted community members, for your unwavering support, generous donations, and immense patience as we worked to bring this dream to life. Your commitment to IAR has been the backbone of this achievement.
The new campus at Page Road is more than just a building; it’s a testament to the faith, resilience, and unity of our community. It’s a space where generations will come together to pray, learn, and grow in faith and service. We can’t wait to welcome you to this beautiful new home for IAR.
Please be on the lookout for further announcements soon regarding dates for both a soft opening and a grand opening. We are working hard to ensure these celebrations truly reflect the significance of this milestone for all of us.
Jazakum Allahu Khairan for being an essential part of this incredible journey. May Allah continue to bless and protect our community.
With warmest wishes and heartfelt Eid greetings,

Osama Said
