Salamu Alaykum 😇 _Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Whoever relieves a Muslim of a burden from the burdens of the world, Allah will relieve him of a burden from the burdens on the Day of Judgement. And whoever helps ease a difficulty in the world, Allah will grant him ease from a difficulty in the world and in the Hereafter. And whoever covers (the faults of) a Muslim, Allah will cover (his faults) for him in the world and the Hereafter. And Allah is engaged in helping the worshipper as long as the worshipper is engaged in helping his brother.”_ Following the two earthquakes of 7.8 and 7.5 magnitudes that hit Southeast Turkey and Northwest Syria, a group of us as university students have pledged to fundraise £10,000 for Syrian and Turkish victims of the earthquake on behalf of Islamic Relief The worst earthquake to hit Syria in over a century The earthquakes are the worst to hit the Turkish region in 19 years and in Syria, the worst in over a century. Freezing temperatures, shortages in fuel and electricity due to damaged infrastructure, limited supplies due to strained supply chains, and more are hampering the efforts of search and rescue teams on the ground. Approximately 380,000 people have taken refuge in government shelters, shopping malls, community centres, and even their cars to protect themselves from the cold. The scale of this disaster cannot yet be determined as the situation on the ground continues to evolve, what we do know is that it is a race against time to save lives. Islamic Relief is on the ground in Turkiye and Syria Islamic Relief teams are on the ground right now responding to the disaster in both Türkiye (Turkey) and Northern Syria. Alhamdulillah, with your generosity so far, we have been able to support 886, 186 individuals (100, 711 households). ‼️ The money raised will provide emergency shelter for 120 families with a total of 720 people. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 ‼️ ❓ Would you consider a donation to the cause❓ Your generosity will give those that are most vulnerable in Syria 🇸🇾 and Turkey 🇹🇷 a safe place to call home during this period of uncertainty. May Allah accept from us ameen! 😇
