Our winter response is underway! See the impact of your donations!
Assalaamu alaykum!
The Prophet (saw) said, 'No Muslim clothes a Muslim with a garment except that he is under the protection of Allah as long as a shred from it remains upon him'. [Tirmidhi]
Alhamdulillah, our winter distributions have continued this week, with your winter kits providing relief to the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan as the colder weather sets in. Many of these families are extremely poor, without the adequate clothing or homes to face the harsh winter ahead - but your donations are providing them relief.
Lately, our events team have been busy with our #HikeForYemen, which took place last Saturday. This week, they're preparing for the highlight of the winter: our annual Gaza Winter Walk! With less than two months remaining, this is the perfect time for you to sign up for the walk and get fundraising for the people of Gaza.
Let's take a look at some of the ways you've made a difference this week:
100 more winter kits containing winter shawls, winter clothing, blankets, hats, socks, sweaters, gloves, masks and soup were distributed to those in need, alhamdulillah!
Your donations are providing vital winter clothing and support, keeping people warm and alive.
These include cooking oil, rice, beans, sugar, blankets and warm shawls for men and women - all because of your donations and support!
Because of the love you've shown them, people like this elderly man are making du'a for you this winter!
Your donations reach those most in need, such as the orphans, widows, disabled and vulnerable.
One participant said, 'JazakAllah khairan for the beautiful opportunity. May Allah (swt) accept it from all those who supported directly or indirectly. We loved it despite all the slipping! In my heart, it constantly reminded me of my grave and that one day I will be under it. All in all, it was a very good faith revival! Alhamdulillah!'
We look forward to walking together virtually in February for our Gaza Winter Walk.
These rural communities are over overlooked as they are a far distance away from the city, but your mercy and support reached them.
‘And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive, [Saying], "We feed you only for the countenance of Allah . We wish not from you reward or gratitude”’. [Qur’an, 76:8-9]
Thank you for all your support this week! We pray you see its rewards in the next life, ameen.
If you'd like to see more of the work we've been up to around the globe, then do check out our social media channels on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
May Allah (swt) reward you all for your support and mercy. Our work is only possible through your du'as and donations. Please keep us in your prayers!
