SPONSOR AN ORPHAN OR WIDOW

Asalaamu'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

We all know the virtue of looking after an orphan or widow, through various ayaat and ahadeeth. It is an act recommended by the Prophet alayhi sallatu wa sallaam and Allaah azzawajaal warns us of not feeding the orphan/poor and treating them harshly. 

☆ A man once came to the Messenger of Allah, sallallaahu`alaihiwasallam, and complained that he feels hardness in his heart. The Messenger of Allah said, what translated means, "Would you like that your heart becomes soft and that you acquire what you need? Be merciful with the orphan, pat his head and feed him from what you eat. This will soften your heart, and enable you to get what you need."
[At-Tabaraanee & As-Silsilah as-Saheehah] 

☆"I and the caretaker of the orphan will enter Paradise together like this, raising (by way of illustration) his forefinger and middle finger jointly, leaving no space in between." [Saheeh al-Bukhaari]

 The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “This money is fresh and sweet. Blessed is the wealth of the Muslim, from which he gives to the poor, the orphan and the wayfarer” or as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said it. Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1465; Muslim, 1052)

We have decided to start a project in which we will sponsor widows and orphans in the poor villages of Morocco every month.We will give them with a monthly income to provide them with food, clothes and medical needs in shaa Allaah.  Having traveled there and seen the conditions that some of the families live in, absolutely shocks and saddens me. A lot of families are struggling to provide day to day basics for their children and widows tend to go hungry for days if they cant provide anything for themselves and children to eat. Too often we see families too poor to pay for medicine or proper medical treatment and have to suffer with no one to offer any assistance. 

You often find that children have no suitable clothing for the winter and their parent/s are unable to provide them with any clothing due to their financial state. By Allaah seeing what the majority of these families who live in the villages go through, it would reduce you to tears subhanAllaah.

We ask for just £2 a week to be able to support these families on a monthly basis and enable them to stand on their feet and provide for their families. The continuous donations will enable us to provide them with a monthly income all year round in shaa Allaah. 

☆Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Sponsoring an orphan means taking care of his religious and worldly interests, teaching him and guiding him etc with regard to religious matters, and taking care of his food, drink, shelter and other worldly concerns. [Sharh Riyaadh al-Saaliheen, 5/113]

HELP US SUPPORT WIDOWS & ORPHANS EVERY MONTH WITH JUST £2 A WEEK IN SHAA ALLAAH!

HELPING A YOUNG BROTHER RE-GAIN HIS EYESIGHT IN SHAA ALLAAH!

AsalaamuAlaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakatuhu 

Yesterday we received news that a young brother in Morocco was losing his eyesight and was in desperate need of an operation as soon as possible. However his family who live in a village are extremely poor and are unable to afford the to pay for the operation. SubhanAllaah, I personally know the family myself and am aware of their immense struggle. The young boys father lost his eyesight completely a few years ago and so can no longer provide for his family.  


We received a call from a relative of mine in Morocco, who was calling on their behalf, having heard about our charity (through the Morocco Winter Project-->READ ABOUT IT HERE- http://ar-rayyaan.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/morocco-winter-project-2013-feeding-100.html) asking if we could help them at all with the cost of the operation. 

The operation cost  is £400 and that was our goal although we were welcomed any donations which would go towards the after care and medicine in shaa Allaah.

Allaahu Akbaar within a few hours we not only managed to reach our target but we exceeded it! Alhamdulilaah!! We managed to raise £696 in a few hours alhamdulilaah! 

Its amazing how much we can achieve as an ummah once we come together for a cause. i ask Allaah azzawajaal to bless and reward everyone who shared, donated and helped us reach our target and beyond. i ask that you get nothing less than Jannahtul-Firdous. Aameen

Please remember the brother in your duaas and i will be updating you all in regards to his progress. JazakumAllaahu Khayran

HELP THIS SISTER CLEAR HER DEBT IN SHAA ALLAAH.

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (radi Allaahu anhu) that the Prophet (sall Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) said:
"There is no day on whbbich the people get up but two angels come down and one of them says, 'O Allaah, give in compensation to the one who spends (in charity),' and the other says, 'O Allaah, destroy the one who withholds.'"  
[Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1374; Muslim, 1010]

Asalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa baarakatuhu.
A dear sister needs our help in shaa Allaah. She is in so much debt & struggling to pay it off.

This is the sister's situation in brief
- Her financial problems began as her husband was abroad & she could not afford to make ends meet. She also had to finance his visa fees.
- Her father became ill so she spent money looking after him.
- She had to take out multiple payday loans and borrow money off brothers and sisters just to get by & now has debt way above what she can pay back & is scared about dying with the debt on her shoulders.

Alhamdulilaah we have managed to raise £259 for her so far. Many people seem to believe that because we live in the UK that there no/little difficulty or that the benefits system enables everyone to live decently or use it as a way out of their financial problems. Wallaahi this is untrue & a misconception as the poverty is greater than we can imagine wa Allaahu must'aan. By the qadr of Allaah, the sister is now pregnant & more distressed than ever before. She is unable to get by now, has increasing debt & currently is unable to buy the necessary things for a baby. On top of this, the brothers & sisters she's loaned from are demanding their money back & some want it within the next 2/3 weeks. Subhan'Allaah wa bihamdihi - imagine the pressure she was going through already, let alone the stress on her now she's pregnant, the pressure of the demands from people for their money back & now her pregnancy.

As the sister is in urgent need of help, Ar Rayyaan Sadaqah Project has a target of making £1,500 to aid her in her current difficulty. Every single penny will be given to her - the charity will not profit at all. In fact it is you who will profit when Allaah rewards you from His Bounty & when your beloved sister makes du'aa for you. Remember the du'aa made by your brother/sister in your absence is rapidly accepted.

Please donate as much as you can. Even 50p or £1 can make a huge difference & it does mount up.

TO DONATE [PAYPAL]- miahmusa@yahoo.com (please leave 'Debt' as a reference)
Or email me for other ways to donate - arrayyaansadaqah@gmail.com

Do NOT let the shaytaan whisper to you -

"Shaytaan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allaah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty." [2:268]

Charity does not decrease wealth; rather it brings rizq & baarakah -
“The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allaah, is as the likeness of a grain (of corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allaah gives manifold increase to whom He wills. And Allaah is All-Sufficient for His creatures’ needs, All-Knower.Those who spend their wealth in the Cause of Allaah, and do not follow up their gifts with reminders of their generosity or with injury, their reward is with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve” [2:261-262] 
And remember the fitna of the grave & the day of the Qiyaamah when all we'll have is our deeds -
“O you who believe! Spend of that with which We have provided for you, before a Day comes when there will be no bargaining, nor friendship, nor intercession.” [2:254]

HELPING A SOON TO-BE-MUM IN SHAA ALLAAH!

AsalaamuAlaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakatuhu, 

We were informed of a young couple who are expecting their first child Allaahumma barrik but were struggling to afford things for their baby.
With bills to pay & the young brother working only part-time they were finding it difficult to make ends meet.

We decided to buy her some baby clothes (bibs, vests, sleepsuits, towels etc) and due to your generous donations we bought her a moses basket.
Sisters have been very kind enough to offer their help & support and alhamdulilaah the couple now have a pram aswell.

Jazakum'Allahu Khairan to everyone who donated and may Allaah accept it from each one of you. Aameen

The sister was overwhelmed with gratitude from all the help she recieved.  Alhamdulilaah by the Mercy of Allaah azzawajaal their burden has eased a little.
