TEF Eden Centre Lindley Renovation
In 2017, our first* stepping stone in Lindley was laid. A hub for the Muslim community living in the ward.

We have now been granted planning approval in 2021 for modifications to the roof, demolition of the rear extension & provision for safe access. We aim to to renovate from within and carry out essential maintenance work to the boundary wall.

Our vision is to deliver a flexible multi-purpose building, suitable for all user groups.

The work will be undertaken in phases, to deliver the least amount of disruption.

We are creating an itinerary with associated costs the community can contribute and pledge towards.

Join us in the journey by donating here.

*Please note that the building was purchased with Qarz/Loans. The site will be officially designated with a function once the final amount is paid off. We have witnessed that the community has outgrown the building within three years. The charity requests donors for this cause are open to TEF utilising funds generated being liquidated and used towards procuring a larger sitein the Lindley Ward Area.
Highfields Car Park
The Highfields car park is leased from the council.

The KMC have agreed to sell the land for total cost of £135k.

The car park purchase will secure the future parking needs for the Maktab, Masjid, Community functions, Food Bank & Scouts initiatives running from the site.
Crosland Moor Car Park
The Crosland Moor Site was purchased in 2013 and renovation completed in 2015 with a cost of approximately £750k.

It is a multi-use building offering nursery, tuition, Maktab, adult education classes, meeting rooms and other community functions.

We are excited to announce that we have purchased the land adjacent to the building and it has been granted planning approval to allow the centre to expand the available safe parking, act as an enclosed play area for the children, enhance the appeal and ambience of the local area with sculpted boundaries.
TEF Welfare – Foodbank
The Eden Foundation was established to serve the Muslim community of Huddersfield and to educate them in their Deen. Our aim is to use education to make transformative changes to people’s lives. Thus forming a chain of khair that allows for other services and projects to be delivered.

To meet the needs of the community and our own families we need to use all the resources that Allah (swt) has gifted us with. Our surplus wealth is a means to bring about effective and lasting change.

We need your support to fulfil our vision. We need to continue to repay the qarz across our sites. We need your support for capital projects; The Highfields site requires a new boiler, central heating system and windows. Crosland Moor needs land development for car parking. The Lindley site needs a complete renovation.

We rely on the generous contribution of the community in Ramadhan to build for a better future. Make us a vehicle to fulfil the Prophetic vision.

The Prophet (saw) said: “When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him (for the deceased).”
Fidyah
This is the compensation for missing Ramadhan fasts due to one being terminally ill or has passed away (in which case it is given out of a third of their inheritance).
The compensation for each missed fast is to give a Fidyah (which is the same amount given for Sadaqah al-Fitr) to the poor.

Kaffarah
This is a major compensation. If a person breaks a fast intentionally or breaks an oath, Kaffarah would then be binding as the form of redemption.
If a Ramadhan fast is broken intentionally, one would need to fast for sixty consecutive days – which is the Kaffarah – and then observe one qadha fast.
If more than one fast is broken intentionally, one will be required to compensate with one Kaffarah – by fasting sixty consecutive days – and a qadha fast for each extra fast broken.
If one cannot do these fasts due to poor health or old age then one must feed sixty poor persons.
For redemption of a broken oath, a person may feed ten poor persons.
We suggest that the amount to feed one person be set at £3.30 and given to the most needy as determined by our charity partners. This amount should be multiplied according to the number persons to be fed.
Ramadhan Iftar for Needy
100% Donation Policy "Feed one poor person for £1". Covid restrictions might mean we are unable to host iftaar dinners or donate Iftar to our local masjid. So this year, why not feed a poor family for a day or for a month.

Don't miss out on the reward for providing Iftar. “Whoever gives Iftar to one who is fasting will have a reward like his, without that detracting from the fasting person’s reward in the slightest.” (Hadith, Tirmidhi).
