Assalamualaikum/ Peace Be with You
I will be trekking up Mount Snowdon on the 24th of July to raise money for Gaza and Haiti. Two countries which are in desperate need of aid for very different but genuine reasons. Gaza currently has one of the highest overall growth rates and population densities in the world. Poverty, unemployment and poor living conditions and widespread and many residents in both Gaza and Haiti rely on international food aid to survive.
I ask you to dig deep into your pockets and support me in my effort to bring about a small change and make an impact on those who are less fortunate than us. i will be working continuously on-line and off-line to reach my target and request that you donate whatever amount you can even if its only £5.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Every Muslim has to give in charity." The people then asked: "(But what) if someone has nothing to give, what should he do?" The Prophet replied: "He should work with his hands and benefit himself and also give in charity (from what he earns)." The people further asked: "If he cannot find even that?" He replied: "He should help the needy who appeal for help." Then the people asked: "If he cannot do (even) that?" The Prophet said finally: "Then he should perform good deeds and keep away from evil deeds, and that will be regarded as charitable deeds." - Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 2, Hadith 524 I ask that you spread the word to raise money for the needy by encouraging your friends and family to donate. if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask
[
2:273] Charity shall go to the poor who are suffering in the cause of GOD, and cannot emigrate. The unaware may think that they are rich, due to their dignity. But you can recognize them by certain signs; they never beg from the people persistently. Whatever charity you give, GOD is fully aware thereof.
