Initially the purpose of this spacious Library & Research Institute will be:

2. Provide books for reading in the premises
3. Facilitate Short term Islamic courses (for both men and women separately)
4. Develop Research work by extracting contents from Qur'an and Hadith and from the works of Shaikh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, which will be then promoted to people through various channels, like printing Pamphlet sized folders, and arranging workshops (1 day, 2 days, 3 & 5 days).

One of the sections of this setup is "Minhaj-ul-Quran Welfare & Peace Promotion Centre" which will be completely focusing on Welfare and Peace Promotion activities and on educating youth about the merciful and peace loving nature of Islam. As for this cause, Shaikh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has provided a complete syllabus/curriculum for the youth.

We all pray to Allah for guidance to correct our own deeds and carry out all these actions with sincerity and to grant us with perseverance to carry on the good work for larger good humanity.
