With an increasingly aging Muslim population, family units becoming smaller and housing becoming a premium, there has become a pressing need for services that care for our elderly while enabling them to maintain their Islamic practice and lifestyle. In many Muslim communities, the conversation around care homes are still a great taboo, with Islam giving parents a high status, some may feel they are turning their backs on their parents by putting them in a care home. This care centre is determined to change such perceptions.

“I’m sure, many people will be thinking ‘Muslims embarking on an aged care centre, what has the Ummah come to!’ We are not opening the door for people to come and dump their unwanted goods. Rather we are opening the door for people who cannot look after the most beloved thing to them. And to give them satisfaction and give them peace of mind that we will look after them like 0ur very own.”

– Mohamed Hoblos, Australian Preacher.
