Whenever we want to do anything, whether it is to improve ourselves or to move forward in our career, whenever we want to move forward from one place to another, then initiative is very important for it. Whenever you take the initiative, the path ahead will open. One example of this is the Islamic Association of North Texas.
History And Development
When there were few Muslims in Texas, we can say a small group, they used to meet in each other’s houses for prayer, and after that, it must have been like this for a long time. After that, they took the initiative and bought a series of houses in Abraham Rode, Grand Prairie, which is located in Texas. Thus, it was established the Islamic Association of North Texas 1971. The Islamic Association of North Texas, a non-profit organization, started looking for a place for a mosque, from which the Dallas Central Mosque was built in Richardson. Thus, its development continued gradually with time, and in 1990, this large expansion was also added to the mosque building. This mosque is built in such a way that it is originally square according to its plan, with tan and brown concrete exterior, with large areas of windows. Yes, of course, this mosque also has a minaret, which is located in the southern corner of the mosque, and a copper dome. In the later part, which is the northwest expansion of the mosque, a copper dome is at the mosque’s entrance, which adds a lot to the beauty of the mosque. There is a prayer hall, an office, classrooms, a multi-purpose hall, a gymnasium, and a medical clinic in the mosque premises.
Conclution
Thus, the Islamic Association of North Texas is playing an important role in Islamic development. Through such various associations, the foundation of religion, society, and humanity becomes stronger. Islamic Association of North Texas is a Muslim organization dedicated to Worship, education, and community services in Richardson, Texas.
