Rationale

Following on from our Orphan Sponsorship Project, we, at Al-Madani Independent Grammar School (AMIGS) for boys, have set ourselves a challenge this Ramadan to support as many needy families as possible with hot meals daily, and food-packs where possible.

We hope this small, kind humanitarian gesture will go some way towards ameliorating the immemsely difficult circumstances under which our brothers and sister live, so they too may observe this Ramadan with one less worry and concern.

We ask you to join us in this good deed.

You will be able to amplify this good deed, and in-shaa-Allah multiply your hasanaat by sharing our donation link with your family, friends and social circle, in order for us to all demonstrate empathy and sympathy for our fellow men.

May Almighty Allaah accept our and your fasting and good deeds, and may He grant us a reward without measure for this, aameen.

Help us feed families this Ramadan

The Messenger (PBUH) said, “Whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his fast, shall have his sins forgiven, and he will be saved from the Fire of Hell, and he shall have the same reward as the fasting person, without his reward being diminished at all." (Hadith Ibn Khuzaymah)

One Food Pack will cost around £65 which will support a family of 6, for up to 30 days.

Providing one hot meal for an individual would cost around £5.

Hunger and conflict in 2024

This Ramadan, a staggering 783 million people are facing hunger. There is enough food in the world to feed everyone. Hunger is not inevitable, it is a man-made crisis that disproportionately affects the most vulnerable, such as children and widows. As the ummah, it’s our duty to support these families as they struggle for food this Ramadan.

For 32 years, we’ve been working to address the causes of long-term hunger through empowering projects that provide training and tools to help people become self-reliant. But after a year of sudden, devastating crises, families facing war and drought, and those still recovering from earthquakes and floods need help to access food now. Donate and help them to eat two nourishing meals every single day of Ramadan.

Be a mercy in their lives, and reap the multiplied blessings of Ramadan.
