Asalamualaykum/Peace be upon you all. 

Irfan here from bonny Scotland!

I am about to do something I have never done in my life. I have decided to run 5k, every single day for 100 days straight. This is all for Yemen! 

For those who know me will know that I don't like running. I find it boring and a prefer a nice peaceful walk, however, this is all about being outside my comfort zone and doing something for the people of Yemen. 

I have full faith that we can easily smash the £5k mark inshaa Allah (God willing). I am just going to put effort in from my side and the rest Allah will do! 

Lets all come together for Yemen. Every little donation will help. Even if it is £1, don't be embarrassed, just donate with the correct intention and you will be rewarded with so much more - inshaa Allah.

All donations will be going to the Yemen Emergency Appeal via Penny Appeal.  Please see below re information regarding the appeal.

Follow me on my Instagram where I will be uploading a video my progress everyday.  I will also be updating my facebook and youtube.

I will start off this fundraiser by a donation from myself of £25 inshaa Allah.

JazakAllah Khair and Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

You guys are awesome!

I pray God blesses you with multiple blessings :) ameen.

Bismillah - lets do this!

"Im fundraising for the Yemen Emergency appeal because each day the Yemeni people go without support, children go hungry and lives are lost. Without help from generous, goodhearted people, Yemen will continue to suffer. By supporting the work Penny Appeal is doing in Yemen, we can make sure that the people of Yemen have the chance to live a life of dignity. We can make sure that they no longer have to worry about where their next meal will come from or if they have the means to protect themselves from threats like COVID-19. The Quran tells us, Whoever saves a life, it is as if he has saved the whole of mankind (5:32); you can save lives in Yemen. So far, Penny Appeal has helped over 82,000 people in Yemen over the last five years but with 24 million people still in need of immediate humanitarian assistance and more confirmed cases of COVID-19 growing over time, we urgently need your help to reach these extremely vulnerable people."
