Story
The conflict in Syria has been going on for more than 9 years. Millions of Syrians have had to flee their homes due to the lack of safety for them and their families. Many Syrians have sought refuge in Lebanon and Jordan which are bordering countries. Many of these refugees have been living in tents in these countries for more than 5 years. Life does not get much better for them as they now struggle with lack of food, water, clothes and money. There are no jobs for these people and therefore no income. Many of these refugees rely solely on aid. Human Relief Foundation works with these refugee camps distributing food packs, fuel, medical kits and other essential aid all year round.
Food pack (feeds a family of 5 for one month) = £60 Fuel (lasts one month+) = £30
Medical support = £50
2 winter blankets = £30
As Muslims we are always taught the importance of brotherhood and sisterhood in Islam. We are taught that the Muslim ummah is like a body, and if one part of the body is aching then the whole body feels the pain. So that is why it is so important to support our family around the world that desperately need our help.
I will be climbing the highest peak in Wales to raise money for these people. My aim is to raise awareness and money for Human Relief Foundation who are on the ground in countries like Lebanon and Jordan, giving out essential aid to these refugees in the form of food packs, fuel, medical equipment and shelter.
It was narrated that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “There is no day on which the people get up but two angels come down and one of them says, ‘O Allah, give in compensation to the one who spends (in charity),’ and the other says, ‘O Allah, destroy the one who withholds.”
"Those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and establish regular prayers and regular charity, will have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve" (2:277).
