This new academic institution would be erected on a 20-acre plot of land located at
W. Little York and Langfield Road
(1 mile form Hwy 290, 3 miles from Beltway 8, and 5 miles from loop 610) - an area zoned light industrial.

According to Dr. Mohammad Afsar, one of the leaders of this project, the goals of the institute include:

to establish an Islamic education of high standard
to promote Islamic education and values in our coming generation
to attract best minds for secular education at minimum cost to all levels of community
to cherish brotherhood-sisterhood values to create strong bond of friendship
to inculcate qualities of love and affection, faith and discipline, patience and unity, teachings of Islam for honesty, respect for elders and parents

This one-complex project is expected to evolve to completion over a 15-year period
and cost approximately $25 million dollars.
It will house the following:

a main center and mosque (capacity 800) with front parking
a kindergarten and elementary school for 500 students
a junior and middle school for 500 students
a high school for 500 students
a university for 15000 students

Plans to make the project a reality are being examined.
