On the 18th of April, Hatters Riders will be cycling from Luton to Cambridge to raise money for Ummah Welfare Trust's SYRIA AND YEMEN EMERGENCY APPEAL.
The Syrian war has been ongoing for nine years, but escalating violence in and surrounding the city of Idlib in the north-west, that has created one of the region's worst humanitarian crisis.
Idlib remains the last refuge for Syria’s weary Muslims. Over a million of them are already displaced from other parts of Syria, and at least half of the population are children.
Like much of the Middle East, Yemen has suffered huge instability and violence following the Arab Spring in 2011. Nationwide protests led to civil strife and an eventual government coup. Air strikes followed in early 2015, and total war ensued.
Women and children in Yemen today are displaced and hungry. It is our duty to come to their aid and support them with that which Allah has granted us.
Believers are like one body in their mutual love and mercy. When one part of a body is in bad health, the rest of the entire body joins it in restlessness and lack of sleep and is busy with its treatment. Likewise, Muslims should run to helping each other. [Bukhari]
