2 Harris Crescent, Sherwood, Durban, Kwa Zulu-Natal 4091 http://www.saliheen.co.za/About
It was in 1993 that a small group of Elders in the Muslim community purchased a house at 92 Harris Crescent in Sherwood for the purpose of establishing a Maktab and Musalla. This property adjoined the Sherwood Park. The Elders envisaged that part of the large park could, in future, be purchased from the Durban City Council to build a proper Madrassa and Musjid. Alhumdulillah, with the help of Allah SWT and the vision and foresight of the Elders of the community, a Maktab and Musalla was established in 1994, despite many objections from the mainly White residence of Sherwood. South Africa was just coming out of the apartheid era with democratic elections planned for 1994. Muslims were purchasing properties in the area and their population was increasing. The Maktab had about 40 students and was held in the afternoon. The first Taraweeh was performed in the Musalla in 1994. Alhumdulillah, Hifz classes were started with about 15 students in 1996.
