Skydive Challenge [POSTPONED]
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold, we at Muslim Hands are taking every precaution and measure to keep our community both abroad and here in Canada safe and healthy.
As such we have decided to postpone all events including (Edge Walk Challenge, Community Tree Planting, and the Big Dive.)
For those who have completed registration payments, you are automatically registered for the event's new date which will be announced shortly.
We are all in this together and we ask Allah SWT to protect and preserve you all Ameen!

Do you have what it takes?
Embrace your inner fear and take the plunge with our sky diving challenge where you will plummet to the ground from a breath-taking height of 10,500 ft. Don’t worry you will be looked after the whole way by highly qualified instructors for both males and females (limited availability).
You’ll be fundraising to build a dig-a well in Mali, Niger, Sudan or Pakistan; the choice is yours. The well will feature a plaque with your or your loved one’s name on it and you will receive personalized feedback on completion of the project. The donated well will count as Sadaqah Jariyah so you will earn a continuous flow of rewards each time the well is used inshallah.
There are only 10 spaces available. Register now to reserve your spot!
Transport provided from Mississauga only.
