Salaam/Greetings all!
On 1st and 2nd July 2017 I will be cycling from London to Paris. Many of you may know I am not a cyclist lol so this will be an ultimate challenge. The reason I have decided to do this is because of the cause which really gets to me and hurts me to hear about.
We will be helping the following -
An estimated 13,000 children in Bangladesh are prey to the commercial sex industry of the country. More than 20,000 children are born and live in the 18 registered red-light areas of Bangladesh. Children born here live everyday life watching their mothers being exploited and ultimately resigning themselves to the same exploitation. Small children help their mothers in household chores and bring refreshments for their mother's clients. Boys tend to become pimps once they grow up and girls continue in their mothers’ profession. The UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) estimated in 2004 that there were 10,000 underage girls used in commercial sexual exploitation in the country, but other estimates placed the figure as high as 29,000 Most girls enter the profession before the age of 12. Trying to imagine the state some of these children are living and born in breaks my heart. We are so privileged and lucky Alhamdulillah (all praise to god). I want to make a difference this is why I have taken this monumental challenge of cycling over 200 miles from London to Paris to raise much needed funds to rescue these poor children. Imagine living their life for one day I personally can’t. We all have small children in our family, kids, cousin’s nephews etc. What would you do if they were in this positon?? What are we doing to help?? I ask that you find it in your hearts to sponsor me for this challenge I have undertaken. You can sponsor me as little as £1 charity has no minimum. Always remember when you have been put into a positon to help others God is Answering those peoples prayers through you. We have been blessed but now will you come forward to help??? Please sponsor me on the link below.

Please help me reach my target and be a part of the rescue mission. We will!! give these children hope each pedal and donation will be one step closer to making these children safe. Please show your support each every donation will only add to my motivation. We will make a difference together!!!!
The first leg of the London to Makkah ride will be London 2 Paris. We will set off from City Hall, London and take in the London sights as we head for the Newhaven port. It will be 2 days in length cycling roughly 180 Miles in total. I will be joining brothers from across the country helping each other to get through it till the end!
Our first stop over will be Dieppe, France where we will rest for the night and continue next morning onto our final destination to the iconic Eifel Tower in Paris.
The second part is our London 2 Makkah ride where a group of brothers will be cycling from London to Makkah in time to perform their Hajj.
With all of your support and duas(prayers), we will make this happen In'shaa'Allah! (If god wills)
