Story
Hey there,
If you know me, you'll know that I'm just an ordinary student with a passion for helping extraordinary individuals. Individuals like those resilient souls in the families who've fled their homes to protect their children from the ongoing 10 year Syrian civil war. This is a confict which has impacted millions of innocent lives in an endless cycle of violence in Syria and beyond, with 1.5 million refugees are living in dire conditions in flimsy tents open to the elements in Lebanon.
As a university student living in ease thousands of miles away in the UK, I felt that it was time I stepped up to help improve the lives of these refugees. I am blessed to have been brought up in a family heavily involved in this sector, and have been fortunate to have been on previous deployments to Syria, Turkey, Bosnia and Bangladesh. I have seen first hand from a young age how YOUR DONATIONS can directly SAVE LIVES on these aid missions to provide much needed supplies for Syrian refugee survivors of the war.
Our team will be distributing YOUR donations and updating you via social media throughout and after the deployment. We will be flying out from Friday 9th April - Thursday 22nd April 2021 to help in lifesaving aid projects in Lebanon during the FIRST WEEK OF RAMADAN.
Please text 07940568586 to join the broadcast updates or follow me on Instagram/Snapchat @ibbi_az or on LinkedIn @Ibrahim A Zulfiqar for daily updates taking place on the ground.
Please donate whatever you can manage to help us help these families in need! Some of the projects we are running which your donations could contribute to include:
- £10 provides a family with a hot iftar meal
- £35 supports a Syrian Orphan for one month
- £300 provides a family with hot iftar meals for a whole month (continues beyond Ramadan)
- £420 supports one Syrian Orphan per Year
- £700 supports one Syrian Widow with A Micro-Garden Livelihood Project to train and learn how to grow and sell her own food and lift her and her family out of debt and poverty
- £1800 provides one year's living costs and food for an entire Syrian refugee family.

As RasulAllah ﷺ said “Whoever relieves a believer’s distress of the distressful aspects of this world, Allah swt will rescue him from a difficulty of the difficulties of the Hereafter. Whoever alleviates [the situation of] one in dire straits who cannot repay his debt, Allah swt will alleviate his lot in both this world and in the Hereafter."
