Why Mexico ?
By the grace of Allah (swt), The Latina Muslim Foundation was able to purchase a 5,500 sqft building in Tijuana Mexico, located 6 miles from the San Diego border.
Due to an agreement between United States and Mexico, migrants who seek United States asylum can remain safely in Mexico until the immigration process is complete. This is one of the main reasons why many Muslims refugees from Syria, Yemen, Ethiopia and other countries travel to Mexico.​
