Sponsor me as I take part in the Race to Jannah for HHUGS!

Hindered by financial hardship and social isolation, the wives of prisoners struggle to provide for their children. Many face the additional challenge of language constraints as well as a lack of basic skills and work experience. Without community support for childcare and funding for education, they’re unable to improve their situation; while their association with a terror suspect further reduces their chances of employment. With the pandemic having cost thousands their livelihoods, this is a time of even greater hardship for single mothers who already have the odds stacked against them. But a generous investment, this Ramadhan, can change that, giving such a mother the skills she needs to gain financial independence.

"I have a few modules left of my course funded by HHUGS. When I finish I hope to apply to become a Teaching Assistant level 3 in school. I didn't have experience in the school so this has given me a lot of knowledge; It looks very good on my CV and will help me get a job. We are the only ones responsible for our families. […] Our days are consumed with our families and dealing with the prison, the case. You don't get time or have the money for studying. So such courses help us to become independent. Without HHUGS, this would not have been possible."

"The one who looks after and works for a widow and for a poor person, is like a warrior fighting for Allah's Cause or like a person who fasts during the day and prays all the night." (Al-Hakim)

For His Sake, embrace the oppressed this Ramadhan, for there is no veil between Allah and their prayers.

‘Verily, Allah will say on the Day of Resurrection: Where are those who love each other for the sake of My glory? Today, I will Shelter them in My Shade on a Day when there is no shade but Mine.’ [Muslim]

Together, we can make a world of difference for some of the most vulnerable families in our midst.

Find Him in the hearts you heal this Ramadhan.

Remember them, He will Remember you.

“My Love is assured for those... who spend on each other for My Sake.” (Ahmad)
