The Da’awah project is an initiative by Muslim women to spread Islamic outreach in rural communities in Northern Nigeria. The main aim of our organization is to facilitate the provision of quality on-site Islamic education in our rural communities.
The vision of The Da’awah Project is to provide local communities with the necessary resources and support to learn Islam properly within their own communities. This Project is a response to the challenges faced by many Islamic organizations in Nigeria – mainly a lack of funds and a coordinated best practice approach.
We are particularly dedicated to ensuring the long-term sustainability of our undertaken projects, which is usually the main challenge faced by many organizations.
In helping to take Islamic Education to the most remote of areas in Northern Nigeria, Da’awah for Jannah Initiative has been involved in

The Almajiranci system in Northern Nigeria has produced a lot of good, but we can all agree that reform is necessary. The large number of children leaving their home communities to places often hundreds of kilometers away is one of the great challenges of this system. We believe that providing quality Islamic education for these children in their own locality reduces the need to leave their homes and families.
In partnership with local organizations, all funds raised are used to support as many rural communities as possible.
We bring together people of like minds who believe that true transformation of the local communities will only come through learning about Allah and following the way of the Prophet (SAW).
Instead of kids having to travel far for knowledge which deprives a lot of them of said education, we create community centres so that they can learn where they live. This means hiring qualified imams and providing continuous training and monitoring along with incentives to settle down in the host communities.
Each and every centre has one main objective: to transform the lives of people in those communities through the authentic teaching of the Quran and living a life following the examples of the Prophet (SAW).
Through your help, we hope to create a sustainable source of funding for this effort. A Network of believers cooperating in a seamless reoccurring manner that will make this a Sadaqtul Jariya for all of us.
So far we have 73 Centres with over 130 Trained Imams attending to 10,000 Students across 10 States in Nigeria.
Our Goal for each community is to provide a Majid Centre (for Teaching), provide a resident Islamic teacher and take care of their upkeep as the key to sustainability is retaining the Imams, provide a source of clean water for the community (usually via boreholes).
Getting the Imams invested in the local community, reduces high staff turnover but also ensures more effective results for the Da’awah Project. Incentives we provide include things like land to farm, setting up small businesses such as milling, tea or phone charging stalls based on local needs.
The entire program is built on robust monitoring and evaluation. This is achieved through physical inspections and remote monitoring via pictures and videos.
Read up about communities we have touched by Allah’s permission. These are a few of the latest, we hope to do more even as we build the bridges necessary for such. Each and every centre has one main objective: To transform the lives of people in those communities through the authentic teaching of the Quran and living a life following the examples of the Prophet(SAW).
In the outskirt of Kano, this village had no school and a Mosque that was caving in. The local kids only engaged in farming with no other form of education. The new Mosque Centre is already serving this community.
A sister living in the UK had been wanting to do something good for her late mum, but rather than do it in Uganda, where her mum is from, she opted to do it in Nigeria based on what she’d heard about Dawah project.
A lady born in the village was trying to keep Islam alive by herself. With the new Mosque, she doesn’t have to fight the battle alone anymore. When our drillers arrived to build them a borehole, the people were so excited they fed the drillers in hospitality.
We partner with local, National and International organizations to set up a funding system that is based on recurring or one-off donation to create centres that will serve as Masjid and school for Islamic and sometimes general knowledge.
As the key is to keep the Imans, we do a lot to attract them to the work, train them and take care of them in terms of renumerations. To this end, we have established a network of donor which we invite you to be part of. Join in taking Islamic education to the most remote of villages and rescuing the people from vices and scourges apostasy. You may pick one of 4 ways to support Dawa’ah to Jannah Initiaitve.
