أَيْنَمَا تَكُونُوا يُدْرِكْكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتُ وَلَوْ كُنتُمْ فِي بُرُوجٍ مُّشَيَّدَةٍ
“Wherever you may be, death will overtake you, even if you should be within towers of lofty construction.”Surah An-Nisaa 4:78
A burden no family should bear alone
When a loved one passes away, the last thing a grieving family needs is additional financial pressure. LMBA helps members prepare together so that the community can support families during this difficult period.
The Reality
In Luton, funeral arrangements cost approximately £3,000. Many families discover that their loved ones have left behind no funeral funds, or that their savings are not accessible at short notice for them.
Community Support
LMBA brings neighbours together. Your monthly Tabarruʿ contribution is pooled within the Community Burial Waqf Fund to support eligible members and their families with burial costs. This is neighbours helping neighbours, in the spirit of ta'awun - cooperating in righteousness.
Peace of Mind
By becoming a member, you prepare responsibly and participate in a community fund designed to support eligible burial costs when the time comes., so that your family can focus on what truly matters: mourning, prayer, and remembrance.
