We havent posted on the blog for a while subhanAllaah due to commitments etc. However we did do a few projects that were successful due to Allaah's immense Mercy upon His servants alhamdulilaah.
For Eid al-Adha we wanted to try and raise £500 to buy 5 sheeps to be slaughtered on Eid and have their meat distributed to the extremely poor people in a village in Morocco.
If we were unable to raise funds for 5 we hoped to raise enough for at least two in shaa Allaah so that at least we can help feed some families who really do not have anything.
The meat would go to people who have little to no food at all as well as widows and orphans.The sheep personally distributed by family members in shaa Allaah. May Allaah reward them aameen,
If you remember the winter project we done in which we provided all the essential needs to get them by(flour, oil, potato, tomato etc) they were overwhelmed with how much people wanted to help them since they don't receive any aid from anywhere else. You can read about it HERE!
Alhamdulilaah and by the mercy of Allaah we raised the money and the sheeps were slaughtered and distributed on the day of Eid! Alhamdulilaah this happened purely by the grace of Allaah. Some people were extremely generous and gave large amounts of money towards this project, I ask Allaah to grant them nothing less than Firdous and bless their families aameen.
Here are some pictures taken from that day:
JazakumAllaahu Khayran to everyone who donated, shared or made duaa!
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 4.11 Narrated by Abu Huraira
A man asked the Prophet (alayhi salaatu wa sallaam), "O Allaah's Messenger! What kind of charity is the best?" He replied. "To give in charity when you are healthy and greedy hoping to be wealthy and afraid of becoming poor. Don't delay giving in charity till the time when you are on the death bed when you say, 'Give so much to so-and-so and so much to so-and so,' as at that time the property is not yours but it belongs to so-and-so (i.e. your inheritors)."
