Džemat Ezan is located in the city of Des Moines. It was established in mid-2008 and officially opened its doors in August 2009.

From humble beginnings with only a handful of families and strong faith in our hearts, our community has grown into one of the largest Bosnian Muslim congregations in the United States by family membership. What started as a dream has become a thriving, vibrant community filled with children, youth, and families committed to preserving their faith, identity, and traditions.

Our current mosque has witnessed countless prayers, Ramadan iftars, Eid celebrations, Qur’an classes, weddings, and janazahs. Within its walls, generations of our children have grown up. But today, we have reached a point where our space is no longer enough. Our community continues to grow, and so do our needs.

By the mercy of Allah, we have taken a major step forward — we have purchased land in Urbandale, Iowa, where we are preparing to build our new mosque and Islamic Educational Center. This will not just be a building. It will be a home for faith. A place where our children learn the Qur’an. A gathering space for our youth. A center of strength and unity for families. A legacy that will serve generations to come.

To begin construction, we need to raise $2 million.

This is an opportunity for lasting reward — a Sadaqah Jariyah that continues to benefit you every time a prayer is made, a child learns, or a family finds comfort within its walls.

We invite you to be part of this historic moment.
Your donation today becomes the foundation of our mosque tomorrow.

Together, we can build the House of Allah in Urbandale.

Džemat Ezan smješten je u gradu Des Moines-u. Osnovan je sredinom 2008. godine, a svoja vrata je otvorio u augustu 2009. godine.

Od skromnih početaka, sa nekoliko porodica i velikom vjerom u srcu, naš džemat je izrastao u jednu od najvećih bošnjačkih zajednica po broju porodica u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama. Ono što je počelo kao san nekoliko pojedinaca, danas je snažna zajednica ispunjena djecom, omladinom i porodicama koje žele sačuvati svoju vjeru, identitet i tradiciju.

Naša sadašnja džamija je bila svjedok bezbroj namaza, iftara, bajrama, mektebske nastave, svadbi i dženaza. U njenim prostorijama su odrastale generacije naše djece. Ali danas smo došli do tačke kada nam je prostor postao tijesan. Naša zajednica nastavlja rasti, a potrebe su sve veće.

Sa Allahovom pomoći, učinili smo veliki korak naprijed — kupili smo zemljište u Urbandale, IA, gdje planiramo izgraditi našu novu džamiju i Islamsko-edukativni centar. To neće biti samo zgrada. To će biti dom za našu vjeru. Mjesto gdje će naša djeca učiti Kur'an. Gdje će se mladi okupljati. Gdje će porodice nalaziti podršku. Mjesto koje će služiti generacijama koje dolaze.

Da bismo započeli izgradnju, potrebno nam je 2 miliona dolara.

Ovo je prilika za trajno dobro — sadaku džariju koja će trajati i donositi nagradu sve dok se u toj džamiji klanja, uči i okuplja.

Pozivamo vas da budete dio ove historije. Vaša donacija danas je temelj naše džamije sutra.

Zajedno možemo izgraditi Kuću Allaha u Urbandale-u.
