Sponsor me this Dhul Hijjah as I give up Rice & Pasta to raise vital funds for a family in need.
Help me honour the sisters walking in the footsteps of Hajar by sacrificing something that I love.
In honour of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and his willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice, I am giving up rice & pasta to raise vital funds for the single mothers walking in the footsteps of Hajar who HHUGS support every single day.
“Abdullah ibn ‘Umar used to give away sweets in charity saying, ‘
I am aware of Allah’s saying; “You shall not attain piety until you spend out of that which is beloved to you’ [3: 92] and
Allah knows that I love sweets.’”
So please give generously to help me reach my target in days that are more blessed in virtue than the last days of Ramadhan!
“There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these 10 days.” (Bukhari)
HHUGS supports single mothers impacted by counter-terror measures and detention. With their husbands in prison, these women face social isolation and financial hardships, as they struggle desperately to provide for their children. With no one to rely on but Allah, they are the Hajars living in our midst, unknown, unnoticed and often shunned.
This Dhul Hijjah, your Sadaqah need not travel far to lift a mother and her children out of distress.
