IMPROVING MOSQUES
ISNA’S MASJID DEVELOPMENT COMMIT-tee conducted an organizational assessment of Masjid al-Fajr in Indianapolis in February.
The assessment team evaluated the organizational structure, decisionmaking processes and operations to determine whether the organization is in vertical alignment (are goals, people, and out-comes aligned with vision, mission and values) and whether it is functioning effectively. The committee surveyed mosque participants to determine attendees’ demographics and their views on the mosque.
The assessment team comprised Ihsan Bagby, associate professor of Islamic studies at the University of Kentucky and chairman of ISNA’s Masjid Development Committee, Maher Budeir, founder and trainer at Balanced Leadership Institute, and Ibrahim Sherman, former chief financial officer   financial trainer from the Balanced Leadership Institute.
The team made its first assessment trip to Masjid al-Fajr Feb. 6-7, and distributed a questionnaire to attendees at the Friday prayer with nearly 75 percent participation. The team also met with mosque leadership and stakeholders. Members reviewed and made recommendations for changes in the mosque’s constitution, financial functioning, programs and operations, and conducted training programs for the board and financial managers.
