This year, we'll spend a Ramadan like no other. The doors of the mosques may be closed but the doors of sadaqah remain open!
The Prophet (saw) said: “Whoever draws near to Allah during it (Ramadan) with a single characteristic from the characteristics of (voluntary) goodness, he is like whoever performs an obligatory act in other times. And whoever performs an obligatory act during it, he is like whoever performed seventy obligatory acts in other times.” (Ibn Khuzaymah)
You might be struggling with the lockdown this year but it's easy to forget that many families in our midst live like this all year round. You can make a difference to families for whom social distancing and isolation is a norm.
This Ramadan, children in over 200 shattered homes in the UK will face poverty, isolation and fear without their fathers. They provide financial, practical and emotional support to aid family members through this devastating time. The social isolation and pressures which these struggling families face throughout the year are felt all the more intensely during Ramadan, a time of community and unity.
When Ramadan is a time to nurture spirituality, many single mothers can’t focus on much else but their overwhelming financial burdens. And in the wake of COVID-19, with shops inflating their prices, families struggle to feed their children and spiral deeper into debt amidst the panic and hoarding.
Imagine transforming a month of pain and isolation to one of relief and compassion.
You don’t have to simply imagine. By donating to my page you can turn a child’s anxious tears into infectious smiles.
With your support, they can experience the delight of Eid through new clothes and gifts to mark the occasion. You can restore dignity to vulnerable families and allow them to truly feel the mercy of Ramadan and find dignity, being sheltered and protected from hunger. Single mothers can be empowered with important knowledge and skills to support their household. Elderly parents, in the twilight of their lives, can find comfort in the companionship of our community.
You can lift a family out of the darkness of despair and isolation into the light of hope and mercy.
Let us be a solace and hope for families torn apart.
May you all have a blessed Ramadan and may Allah accept our good deeds and forgive us our sins. Please remember these vulnerable families in your Du’as🤲 And may you be rewarded abundantly for your generosity and kindness💕
